Overview
The Lee Lab at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical
School is recruiting a highly self-motivated individual to join as
a full-time Research Technician. How do all the cells in our body
have the same DNA but such different functions? Our cells have
distinct abilities to develop into different organs, respond to
tumor cells, or sense the world around us. This occurs because of
gene regulation. Our lab research focuses on the role of gene
regulation in establishing different cellular phenotypes and its
contribution to cancer, specifically at the stage of mRNA
translation. The candidate will be involved in both lab management
and research activities, using a wide range of techniques,
including molecular, computational, biochemical, and cell-based
approaches. He/she will be expected to work independently with
mentorship by a senior researcher in the lab, participate in lab
meeting presentations, and be involved in collecting data for
publications (with authorship if appropriate). Excellent
interpersonal, organizational, and time management skills are
essential.This position requires a minimum bachelor's degree in
biology or related field. Must have at least one year of previous
molecular biology lab experience. The ability to perform general
molecular biology (PCR, cloning, bacterial transformation) and/or
protein purification skills are highly preferred. Must have strong
organizational and interpersonal skills, excellent time management
skills, high level of initiative, and the ability to work both as a
team player and independently.
Located in Boston and the surrounding communities, Dana-Farber
Cancer Institute is a leader in life changing breakthroughs in
cancer research and patient care. We are united in our mission of
conquering cancer, HIV/AIDS and related diseases. We strive to
create an inclusive, diverse, and equitable environment where we
provide compassionate and comprehensive care to patients of all
backgrounds and design programs to promote public health,
particularly among high-risk and underserved populations. We
conduct groundbreaking research that advances treatment, we educate
tomorrow's physician/researchers, and we work with amazing
partners, including other Harvard Medical School-affiliated
