Milwaukee, United States Marquette University Full time

The Cook Lab in Biological Sciences at Marquette University is seeking a postdoctoral research scientist to fulfill obligations for a funded National Science Foundation grant performing field and lab research experiments.

This position is a 12-month appointment, with renewal for a second year based on performance/progress and funding. The salary is competitive with full benefits as a full-time employee.

The postdoctoral research scientist is expected to design and perform procedures/techniques for the extraction of DNA/RNA using standard molecular methods for sequencing analysis, physiological assay, behavioral experiments, and advanced knowledge in genomic, transcriptomic, and gene editing technologies, with some knowledge of these techniques in non-model organisms. Scientists should be willing to learn new technologies and expected to supervise and mentor student researchers and assist with routine calibration and maintenance of laboratory equipment.

As a more senior member of a growing research group, you will be expected to take on a bigger leadership role while working closely with supervisor.
