Opportunities
Join us!
We are recruiting talented scientists with an interest in molecular cell biology, tissue engineering, quantitative microscopy, skin biology, and related fields. Specific open positions are listed below. Please email the PI with any other inquiries.
UT Southwestern graduate students interested in discussing a rotation should email the PI. Prospective students applying to graduate programs should do so through the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences rather than through individual labs.
Though part of the Department of Dermatology, the Nanes Lab is physically located in the Cecil H and Ida Green Center for Systems Biology, a uniquely interdisciplinary center focused on understanding the molecular circuits governing cell behavior. The Nanes Lab is fully integrated into a shared cluster of labs studying cell and tissue morphology, cell signaling, and developing next-generation microscopy pipelines to visualize molecular processes in real time. This environment fosters creative, original thinking with access to a broad palette of expertise and techniques.
Title
Research Assistant Position
A Research Assistant position is immediately available in the Nanes Laboratory in the Departments of Bioinformatics and Dermatology at UT Southwestern Medical Center. This position will support projects investigating wound healing, skin barrier formation, skin cancer, and the mechanisms of tissue remodeling. Responsibilities include both routine and specialized laboratory procedures such as tissue culture, biochemical assays, histology, microscopy, reagent preparation, molecular cloning, data collection, and other duties as assigned. We are looking for a motivated, organized, highly dependable and detail-oriented person with wet-lab experience. A bachelor's degree with major coursework in a related field and strong academic record is required. Ideal candidates will be motivated to learn new skills and techniques; additional training for specialized experiments will be provided. The successful candidate will be working with a highly collaborative, dynamic, and mutually respectful team.
