The L’Hernault lab (Steven W. L’Hernault, PI) in the Department of Biology at Emory University has an immediate opening for a research technician. We use genetic, molecular, and biochemical approaches to elucidate the molecular basis of spermatogenesis and fertilization. We recently identified a new gene that appears to act in sperm-oocyte binding/fusion during fertilization, and the functional analysis of the gene is ongoing. This project is currently conducted by a postdoc in our lab and we are searching for a technician to work closely with him. This is a great opportunity for a curious, motivated individual that is willing to learn new techniques while contributing to an exciting project.
