One-Year #Research #Opportunity in #A

An opportunity to get involved in research in the Department of Genetic Medicine at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

We are seeking a highly motivated research fellow to join our laboratory to assist in the developing of next generation sequencing (NGS) methods with direct application in human health. The applicant will be involved in the preparation of NGS libraries using nanofluidic devices to improve the resolution and accuracy of whole genome de novo assemblies. Alternative she/he will be involved in the development of single-cell epigenetic mapping technologies or methylation sequencing with application in epigenome wide associations studies (EWAS). The project assignment will be based on both the applicant personal interest and also on the priorities of the lab at the time the intern joins our group. The participant's stay in the USA will be supported with a monthly salary of $ 1,800. At the time of the application the applicant must be college graduate.  The applicant must be able to write and communicate in English. Molecular biology knowledge and familiarity with the work of experimentation in the laboratory bench are highly desirable. Those interested contact Dr. Alejandro Colaneri: colaneri@email.unc.edu

Pd: Students from the bachelor degree in biotechnology who have passed all courses and just lack to complete their experimental project may also be considered candidates
