SUMMARY

The primary function of the Research Scientist is to provide technical expertise and experience to plan, design, coordinate, supervise, and carry out research projects in the laboratory of Dr. Alejandro Aballay in the Department of Genetics. The Aballay laboratory studies the role of the nervous system in the control of inflammatory and stress pathways at the organismal level. The ideal candidate will have a proficient skill set in RNA biology, molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, microscopy, and data analysis.
Because deficient or excessive inflammation can lead to infection, cancer, or conditions such as Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and Alzheimer’s disease, the research conducted in the Aballay laboratory impacts the overall research efforts throughout the institution.
