Erle Lab - Junior Specialist
University of California - San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, United States
Position description
The Erle Lab is now recruiting for a Junior Specialist. The junior specialist will perform experiments designed to help understand fundamental mechanisms underlying asthma.

designing, conducting, and interpreting experiments under the supervision of the PI
helping to maintain lab supplies and equipment
working with other members of the PI's lab and collaborating labs to support related projects
Methods employed include human primary cell culture, lentiviral and other CRISPR systems, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, videomicroscopy, and immunoblotting.
