Job Description:
We are looking for a Genetic Engineer that will design new labelling and optogenetic strategies for live fluorescence imaging. What we provide:
Additional Info:
Lab Vision The Discovery Machine Lab led by Loic Royer at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub will design and build lightsheet microscopy based ‘discovery machines’ that will not only acquire image data, but also perform online processing, instant 3D visualization, adaptive imaging, and automated photo-manipulation. These integrated instruments bring together state of the art optics, robotics, machine learning, and image analysis with the aim of building comprehensive atlases of development and modeling complex cellular choreographies.[Click Here to Access the Original Job Post]
