These responsibilities include: - design and optimize gene editing constructs for targeted genome modifications, - employ iPSC derivation techniques and perform thorough characterization to ensure the quality and integrity of cell lines used in the research, - day to day maintenance of cell cultures, - perform molecular, histological, and immunocytochemical analyses to evaluate the effects of genome editing on targeted cells and tissues, - implement effective methodologies to deliver gene editing constructs into fibroblasts and iPSCs, optimizing delivery efficiency, - utilize differentiation protocols to guide iPSCs into neuronal lineage for studying gene editing effects on neuronal cells phenotype, - evaluation of on-target and off-target edits using NGS approaches, - develop and implement in vivo delivery strategies to target specific tissues and assess the efficacy of genome editing. Report Preparation and Literature Research: - Prepare reports containing analytical, descriptive, and evaluative content that will be submitted for publication or for contribution to grant applications, progress reports, presentations at national and international meetings, etc. Conduct research of literature and database analysis. Data Collection/Analysis/Record Keeping: - Collect and analyze scientific data pertinent to the research projects. Manage and maintain detailed animal records and all research related information in an easily identifiable manner for current and historical documentation. Personnel Supervision: - Serve as lead-person for laboratory research assistants; train staff in research techniques and protocols; delegate tasks and oversee work of students and other support staff. Material Presentation: - Present research findings to fellow investigators and collaborative scientists; attend professional meetings. Other duties: - Perform additional tasks as required or assigned, to fulfill the mission of the Center for Embryonic Cell & Gene Therapy.
