SUMMARY:Research Technician II - Cancer epigenetics
DESCRIPTION:We are seeking a research technician to join a cutting-edge cancer epigenetics laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital. The position is intended to provide experimental support for projects related to the organization of the cancer genome and its influence on radio- and chemo-therapeutic response\, as well as shared lab management responsibilities. The lab develops and utilizes cutting-edge tools for the genome-wide analysis of chromatin state in normal and malignant cell populations. Areas of ongoing focus include defining the relationship between nuclear organization (“topology”) and therapeutic response\, as well as utilization of targeted genetic screens to identify of epigenetic factors crucial to therapeutic response. \nPRINCIPAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:  \n\nPrepares basic solutions and performs base-level procedures as assigned (i.e. – pipetting\, cell and tissue culture\, etc.) \nMaintains laboratory notebook \nUnderstands and applies basic scientific techniques \nConducts analysis of results and may begin interpretation of results \nSets up and prepares routine experiments as directed \nPrepares lab reagents\, chemicals\, instruments and equipment \nMay perform independent literature searches \nAssists with organizing materials for publication or presentation \nMaintains and orders supplies \n\nA Research Technician II performs the duties of a Research Technician I (above) and may also:  \n\nExecute protocols of non-routine experiments \nAssist the PI(s) with determining the most suitable methodology \nPerform basic design and modification of protocols \nCalculate\, transcribe and analyze data \nPrepare and present reports \nOrganize and summarize acquired data\, using scientific and statistical techniques. \nOrganize and/or draft material for the preparation of research papers\, manuscripts and other documents for publication and/or presentation. \nParticipate in the design of experiments or field work. \n\nSKILLS/ABILITIES/COMPETENCIES REQUIRED:  \n\nAbility to work independently and as a team member \nGood communication skills \nComputer literacy \nWorking knowledge of clinical research protocols \nAbility to perform multiple tasks independently \n\nThe Research Technician II should also possess:  \n\nAnalytical skills and the ability to resolve technical problems \nAbility to interpret acceptability of data results \nWorking knowledge of data management programs \nDemonstrated competence in research techniques and methodologies \n\n\nQualifications \n\nEDUCATION:  \n\nBachelor’s degree required. \n\nEXPERIENCE:  \n\nNew graduates with some lab experience (via course work\, internships\, etc.) or those without any prior research experience will be considered for the Research Technician I position outlined above. \nThose with a minimum of 1 year of directly related work experience will be considered for a Research Technician II position.
