The David H. Smith Center for Vaccine Biology and Immunology, and the Human Immunology Center at the University of Rochester Medical Center has two immediate openings for flow cytometrists. Position I: BD FACS Aria high-speed cell sorter Operator This position has the primary responsibility for the cell sorting needs of the center and maintaining the sorter. This individual is expected to apply a high level of user capability, and also interface with and assist Center investigators on a variety of projects. Candidates must have prior experience with operating a multi-color cell sorter. Position II: BD LSR-II analytical flow cytometer Operator and lab tech. This position has the primary responsibility for analytical needs of the newly created Human Immunology Center. This individual will participate in developing advanced immunological techniques that include but are not limited to flow cytometry. Candidates with prior experience in immunology and multicolor flow cytometric analysis and ELISPOT assays are preferred. Candidates for both positions must have a minimum of two years experience in a biology laboratory environment and the ability to communicate with researchers of all levels including Principal Investigators. Though significant training will be provided, the successful candidates must possess a sufficient understanding of instrumentation to learn, optimize and maintain the cytometers. Experience with flow cytometric data analysis and software is a plus. The David H. Smith Center for Vaccine Biology & Immunology (www.urmc.rochester.edu/Aab/vaccbio) in the Department of Microbiology & Immunology (www.urmc.rochester.edu/smd/mbi) is a highly productive and expanding center focused on both human and animal immunology. Successful candidates will have an opportunity to gain significant experience on both instruments and contribute to the continued growth of the center. Position and salary level will be commensurate with experience and qualifications. The University of Rochester is an equal opportunity employer.
