Organization Overview: RNA is the driving force of biological complexity, determining which genes any given cell expresses at specific times and under specific circumstances. Darnell developed high-throughput sequencing and crosslinking methods to investigate how RNA binding proteins (RBPs) modulate gene expression. He discovered neuron-specific RNA-binding proteins in the mammalian brain, and studies their link to intellectual function and human disease. Overview:

  • Perform basic molecular biology and biochemical techniques, including genotyping, PCR, and other related assays
  • Participate in and learn about state of the art approaches to studying brain RNA biology, including CLIP, RNA-sequencing
  • Assist biologists with neuroscience-related experiments and the implementation of new research methods
  • Perform brain dissections, optogenetics, stereotaxic injections, combined with precision molecular RNA biology
  • Maintain an organized laboratory space, manage inventory, and ensure compliance with safety and animal welfare protocols
  • Handle rodents, set up experimental matings, perform weaning, and maintain meticulous records of the animal colony
Qualifications:
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
