The Chan Zuckerberg Biohub San Francisco (CZ Biohub SF) (https://www.czbiohub.org/sf/) is an independent nonprofit research institute that brings together three powerhouse universities - Stanford, UC Berkeley, and UC San Francisco - into a single collaborative technology and discovery engine. CZ Biohub SF itself supports some of the brightest, boldest engineers, data scientists, and biomedical researchers to investigate the fundamental mechanisms underlying disease and develop new technologies that will lead to actionable diagnostics and effective therapies. We are guided by our values of scholarly excellence; disruptive innovation; hands-on engineering/hacking/building; partnership and collaboration; open communication and respect; inclusiveness; and opportunity for all.
Our Vision
Diversity of thought, ideas, and perspectives are at the heart of CZ Biohub Network and enable disruptive innovation and scholarly excellence. We are committed to cultivating an inclusive organization where all colleagues feel inspired and know their work makes an important contribution.
The Opportunity
Come develop multidisciplinary skills in a collegial non-profit environment that brings together biologists, engineers and data scientists!
The Intracellular Architecture Group at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub (led by Manu Leonetti; https://www.czbiohub.org/leonetti) strives to map how the human cell is built. For this we combine CRISPR, molecular biology, fluorescence microscopy, proteomics, robotics, software engineering and data science. We build large datasets and use them to draw new biological insights. For example, our flagship OpenCell project provides a large reference of protein localization and interactions that can be mined and re-used by the entire community for discovery (https://opencell.czbiohub.org/). Our science is fully open-source and published in journals like Science and Nature Methods (https://bit.ly/3T5Fbmf; https://go.nature.com/3rXOSae).
We are seeking a Research Associate - Molecular Biology to help build a state-of-the-art imaging screening platform that will be applied to cell-based disease models. This is a great opportunity for candidates with a strong interest in cell biology and biotechnology, supported by experts in a highly collaborative and well-funded scientific environment. Recent graduates interested in research experience before applying to graduate or medical school are welcome to apply.
