Position description
The California Institute for Quantitative Biosciences at UC Berkeley (QB3-Berkeley) harnesses the quantitative sciences of physics and engineering to unify our understanding of biological systems at all levels of complexity, from atoms and molecules to cells, tissues, and entire living organisms. The Streets Lab in QB3 applies lessons from mathematics, physics, and engineering to invent tools to dissect and quantify complex biological systems. The goal is to uncover laws that govern the interactions of molecules inside the cell and the interactions between cells in a tissue or organism by making precision measurements on single cells.
The main role of this position is to assist with research responsibilities in the Streets Lab, a laboratory in the California Institute for Quantitative Biosciences at UC Berkeley (QB3-Berkeley).
Primary research responsibilities include reporting directly to the PI, postdoctoral researchers, and PhD students, regarding the reading of scientific literature, design of experiments, collection, processing, analysis, and interpretation of data, and presenting results through research presentations and manuscripts. Specifically, this position will be working on a project related to the analysis of single-cell genomic data in the context of human biology. Duties include weekly meetings with PI, lab members, and collaborators, reporting updates and planning experiments, and staying up to date with relevant literature.
