We are a lab at OHSU in the Department of Pediatrics. We use the model system of zebrafish to study adult stem cell biology, brain cancer stem cells, and neural regeneration. All of these topics are unified by the field of developmental biology and we use common molecular biology techniques and genetics to study these processes.  We are looking for a Senior Research Associate who has extensive experience using zebrafish to study molecular biological questions. The projects require fish line creation, embryo injections, genomics, and the drive to get genetic tools working in the lab.  In addition to the technical aspects of the job, this position will have opportunities for grant writing and trainee supervision.

• PhD in relevant field AND 1 year of relevant experience OR Master's Degree in relevant field AND 5 years of relevant experience OR Bachelor's Degree in relevant field AND 9 years of relevant experience.
• Experience using model organisms to study cell and developmental biology. 
• Experience with common molecule staining and cloning techniques is essential.

• PhD in cell biology, molecular biology, or genetics.
• Zebrafish and related husbandry.
• Ability to use R to manipulate next generation genomic data.
• Familiarity with Linux.
