The Behringer Lab in the Department of Biological Sciences at Vanderbilt
University is looking for a Research Assistant to oversee long-term
experimental cultures of Escherichia coli under various stresses. The
Behringer lab is a young and vibrant team dedicated to understanding
fundamental biological processes in a collaborative environment. Our
lab is actively involved with the Vanderbilt Evolutionary Studies
Initiative and the Vanderbilt Institute for Infection, Immunology,
and Inflammation, making it a wonderful opportunity for recent graduates
looking for a two-year position to gain valuable research experience prior
to pursuing a graduate degree. The major research focus of this position
is understanding how ecological perturbations shape co-culture dynamics,
which aligns with the global lab interests of how microbes evolve in
stressful environments. The Research Technician is a key member of the
research team responsible for supporting the research, organization,
and day to day operations of the lab. As such, this position requires
skills in microbial cell culture, nucleic acid extraction, and project
organization. Applicants with experience conducting experimental
evolution, bacterial cell culture, or phage culture are strongly
encouraged to apply. For more information e-mail the PI, Megan Behringer
(
