· Generalist OR Cytogenetic License
· Strong technical aptitude, if they have experience with molecular that would be GREAT but not required. Will be trained on PCR, DNA/RNA extraction, Next Gen Sequencing, etc. so any sort of technical skills or understanding bring value
Additional Info:
They are working to set up and validate their CLIA lab so the lab itself will not be operational for 1-2 years. Work will entail lots of involvement with R&D and should be a very exciting opportunity for someone who wants more freedom and diversity in their job. A huge selling point to this job is that a strong FISH person will be trained up on molecular techniques, that the company is on the forefront of a new and exciting commercial application (COMPANION DIAGNOSTICS), and that they are a fun and exciting group of startup oriented people on staff.
