Assistant/Associate Scientist, Cellular Analysis – Miami/San Francisco Bay AreaThe Immune Tolerance Institute, Inc., (www.iti-immune.org) is a non-profit start-up biotechnology corporation founded in partnership with the University of California, San Francisco to fill critical unmet needs for the translation of fundamental scientific discoveries into new therapies for the prevention and treatment of the broad range of diseases related to the human immune system. Unique in its design and mission, ITI joins cutting-edge academic research with comprehensive bio-pharmaceutical industry expertise to establish the leading center of excellence in translational immunology in order to advance promising new medicines from lab bench discoveries to bedside benefit. This assistant/associate scientist will be responsible for sample processing for cellular assays for immune system monitoring in a Good Clinical Laboratory Practice environment. Implementation will include the use of state-of-the-art capabilities in flow cytometry and laboratory automation. The platforms will be implemented to execute a range of mechanistic assays to interrogate immune system function in therapeutic settings. ITI has established a Cellular Analysis Laboratory at Beckman Coulter in Miami Florida, where most of the initial work will occur. The successful candidate will have a BA in Cell Biology, Immunology or related field and prior laboratory experience. Direct experience with cellular assays, including cytometry on human samples preferred. This person should be very “hands on,” comfortable working within a small to medium size laboratory environment and have success following and developing both standard operating procedures and new experimental protocols. Level will be commensurate with experience. Please send cover letter and formatted (Word, pdf, etc) CV to:
