Core Director Position in Single-Cell Biology

Full-time tenured or tenure-track position at assistant, associate and full professor levels.

We are inviting applications for a Core Director Position that offers the successful candidate the opportunity to engage in cutting edge single-cell research. The candidate is encouraged to do research of their own as long as this serves the interest of further advancing the capabilities of the Core Facility. For example, optimization, improving existing technology and developing new, advanced applications is strongly encouraged. Publication, either as co-author or as senior author is important.

Single-Cell Identification and Isolation Core

Services include the isolation of single cells from blood, cell or tissue samples, including human clinical samples using a variety of approaches, including various single-cell dispensing devices (e.g. CellenOne X1, MD Single Cell Printer, MoFlo Astrios) and single-cell retrieval technologies (e.g. ALS CellCelector, MMI CellCut). Comprehensive training for these new technologies will be provided.

Minimum qualifications include a Ph.D. degree in biological sciences and a minimum of three (3) years of relevant postdoctoral experience with technologies such as FACS sorting, microscopy, and tissue culture. The Core Director will closely collaborate with our existing “Single-cell genomics core”, “Single-cell mass spec”, and “Single-cell bioinformatics” Core Directors. The successful candidates will have excellent interpersonal skills and a service-oriented mindset. Good communication skills are critically important and the candidates should be able to communicate in both Chinese and English.

Center for Single-Cell Omics (CSCOmics)
