Summary:

Dr. Chandlers Laboratory, situated within the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center (OSUCCC) is devoted to understanding how dysregulation of RNA processing contributes to cancer development and therapeutic resistance. Our research centers on defining the mechanisms that control alternative preâ‘mRNA splicing of oncogenes, signaling molecules, and immune regulators, and on leveraging these pathways for therapeutic intervention across multiple cancer types, including liver and breast cancer. Using molecular, genomic, and in vivo approaches, we develop spliceâ‘modulating strategies, such as spliceâ‘switching oligonucleotides, to restore tumor suppressor activity and disrupt oncogenic signaling networks.

We're looking for a highly motivated individual to join our team as a Research Senior Technician at OSUCCC. Your role will be pivotal in several significant research projects in Cancer Biology. You'll collaborate closely with the lab staff so strong organizational and communication skills are crucial. Adaptability to new technologies and a fast-paced work environment is a must. You'll also have the opportunity to contribute to major research papers and participate in national and international conferences.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree or equivalent experience required; 4 years of relevant experience required with High School diploma or GED, 2 years of relevant experience required with Associate's Degree, or 0 years of relevant experience required with Bachelor's Degree.
• Ability to translate, adapt and apply academic and/or practical knowledge in the conduct of biological/health science research is required.
• Experience in a biological/health science research capacity is preferred.
