CTSI is a large, highly complex research unit within the Office of the AVC-CR that spans the four UCSF health science schools (Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing, and Dentistry), the UCSF Graduate Division, and collaborating affiliates of UCSF.

The mission of CTSI is to facilitate clinical and translational research to improve patient and community health by providing infrastructure, services, and training to make research more efficient.

CTSI develops broad coalitions and partnerships at the local, regional, and national levels to enable a transformation of the research environment.

CTSI has $25-$28M in annual funding from multiple sources (NIH, institutional, philanthropy, industry, and other) and includes 20 interdisciplinary programs.

The clinical component of CTSI, Clinical Research Services (CRS), integrates the activities of multiple clinical research sites that provide adult and pediatric inpatient and outpatient clinical services to support the translation of promising clinical research ideas into successful protocols.

CRS provides an array of core research services, including adult and pediatric nursing services, phlebotomy, and biospecimen processing.

The Biospecimen Processing Lab (BSPL), a part of CRS, collects, processes, stores, and distributes bio-specimens for research.

The BSPL functions as a common biorepository for human biospecimens derived from patients who have consented to participate in clinical trials and research studies and are undergoing cancer treatments, surgeries, and other medical procedures.

We welcome and encourage applications from those with lived and/or professional experience in communities that have been excluded from research, have been historically underrepresented in staff and leadership roles, and whose professional interests center equity and justice.

Required qualifications include a BA/BS in a related science and one or more years of recent, directly related work experience, utilizing the techniques or methods required by the position.

Additional qualifications include a minimum of 1 year laboratory experience in research and/or clinical settings, ability to accurately perform data entry through electronic databases, excellent communication skills, general molecular biology laboratory work experiences, and skilled use of microtome or cryostat.

Preferred qualifications include skilled use of microtome or cryostat, experience in handling human biospecimens for clinical diagnostics, lab safety training, blood-borne pathogen training, good laboratory practices training, and biosafety lab training.
