.- You are here:Home > Stem Cell, Differentiation and Gene Editing Specialist in the Tissue Engineering UnitStem Cell, Differentiation and Gene Editing Specialist in the Tissue Engineering UnitThe InstituteThe Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) is an international biomedical research institute of excellence, based in Barcelona, Spain, with more than 400 scientists from 44 countries. The CRG is composed of an interdisciplinary, motivated, and creative scientific team supported by a flexible and efficient administration and high-end innovative technologies.The desired candidate will provide patient-derived organoid (PDOs), mouse, and human pluripotent 2D (monolayer) and 3D (organoids) stem cell differentiation procedures already established in the Unit and will execute CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing services. The candidate will set up specific 2D/3D differentiation and gene editing procedures upon user request for specific projects.The candidate should be highly motivated, decisive, methodological, with accurate work habits, and be a good team member. The ideal candidate has a strong ability to multi-task and has a service-oriented mentality. The position involves working some weekends and holiday days during the year.The UnitThe Tissue Engineering Facility is a scientific-technological Core Facility within the Core Facilities Program. The goal of the Tissue Engineering Unit is to provide CRG, PRBB, and external researchers with the latest technologies used in the fields of stem cell biology, stem cell differentiation, organoid formation, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. It was created 8 years ago with the aim of helping the research community in performing Stem Cell and Organoids projects to increase the impact of Stem Cell and Organoid projects and applications. The Unit is constantly setting up new technologies that are emerging in the above fields.Whom would we like to hire?Professional experienceMust HaveYou have at least 3 years' experience in stem cell biology and ES/iPS cell differentiation systems.You have at least 1 year experience in CRISPR/Cas9 or related gene editing systems.You have experience working in a Core Facility or Industry/Biotech/R&D Facility.If you have experience in troubleshooting cell differentiation processes and assays, you will be considered.If you have experience in PDOs, it will be considered.If you have experience in delivering projects to agreed schedules, budgets, and quality standards, you will be considered.Education and trainingYou hold a Bachelor's degree in biology or a related field.
