Cell Polarity Research Scientist

6 days ago


Bar Harbor, Maine, United States The Jackson Laboratory Full time

The Tarchini Lab at The Jackson Laboratory is seeking a Cell Polarity Research Scientist to join our team of researchers focused on cell polarity mechanisms and their impact on the morphogenesis of sensory "hair" cells in the mouse auditory and vestibular organs, including hearing and balance ability.

We are particularly interested in discovering new protein complexes organizing and elongating the stereocilia bundle, the apical hair cell compartment capturing sound or head movements. We are also interested in understanding how these proteins respond to damage, and more generally, to ask whether the molecular machinery assembling the stereocilia bundle during development could be leveraged to regenerate these structures after injury.

The Jackson Laboratory offers a dynamic research environment with unparalleled mouse resources, outstanding training opportunities, and exceptional core services - all within a spectacular setting adjacent to Acadia National Park.

Responsibilities:

  • Plan, execute, and analyze an independent research project
  • Develop exceptional verbal and written communication skills

Qualifications:

  • Recently awarded Ph.D. in developmental cell biology, neuroscience, or related field
  • Experience with fine dissection techniques
  • Good fine motor skills and depth perception are essential
  • Expertise with inner ear biology and mouse genetics are preferred

Salary Information:

The salary for this position will be based on experience and qualifications, but is estimated to range from $65,589 to $75,569 per year.

About JAX:

The Jackson Laboratory is an independent, nonprofit biomedical research institution with a National Cancer Institute-designated Cancer Center and nearly 3,000 employees in locations across the United States (Maine, Connecticut, California), Japan, and China.
