Job Description

This graduate research assistant position is a wet-lab training role that will primarily focus on performing established epigenomic profiling workflows on FFPE tissue samples. The position is best suited for a graduate student with prior laboratory exposure to chromatin or epigenomic assays, especially enzyme-tethering methods such as CUT&RUN and CUT&Tag. Candidates with additional background in histology, pathology, tissue handling, or microscopy-based tissue interpretation are especially encouraged to apply.
The laboratory studies epigenomic regulation in tissue specimens using enzyme-tethering chromatin profiling technologies, with a particular emphasis on CUT&RUN, CUT&Tag, and related profiling methods. A major focus of the group is the application of these methods to formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues and other clinically relevant specimens, with integration of pathology-guided tissue assessment and downstream molecular profiling.
