[FUN_Mail] Opportunity for a postbac research associate position at Haverford College

[Roshan Jain]

Hello!  I'm looking to hire a post-baccalaureate research assistant for my
behavioral neurogenetics lab at Haverford College in Philadelphia PA (1
year position), and I would be grateful if you could share this info with
any recent undergraduates or graduating seniors that you know of who might
be interested in the position.

The research assistant would be working on a project incorporating genetic
analysis, neural circuit imaging, and behavior of zebrafish larvae with
disruptions to autism-linked genes, funded by the NIH.  The position would
offer opportunities to collaborate with and mentor current Haverford
College undergraduate students, and I'd be directly working with them for
their research training and mentorship in scientific writing &
presentation.  They'd contribute both to developing longer
term research projects, and to tying up several *very* near complete
projects that need a "finisher" to complete the manuscripts for
publication, so it would be a great opportunity for someone aiming to
enhance their research skills and publication record in preparation for
applying for PhD or MD programs!

Any potential applicants you know of with prior zebrafish experience would
be fantastic, and interest in or experience with zebrafish, genetics,
neurobiology, coding, and/or behavior research would be great too.  I'm
especially motivated to mentor and support the careers of scientists with
backgrounds or identities that have historically been marginalized in STEM.

Interested candidates should check out the official application link

(deadline
May 8th) and attached document, and I'm happy to answer any questions if
they reach out to me by email at rjain1 at haverford.edu.

Thanks for your help in spreading the word about this job opportunity!

Best,
~Roshan
