What is the difference between Assistant Microscopy vs Laboratory Technician?

AspectAssistant MicroscopyLaboratory Technician
Required CredentialsHigh school diploma or equivalent; some roles may require specialized training in microscopyHigh school diploma or associate degree; often requires certification or training in lab procedures
Work EnvironmentResearch labs, medical labs, educational institutions focusing on microscopy tasksMedical, research, or industrial labs performing various testing and analysis
Employer & Industry UsageResearch institutions, hospitals, universitiesHospitals, diagnostic labs, industrial testing facilities
Common Search & Comparison IntentUnderstanding entry-level microscopy rolesComparing lab support roles in scientific settings

Assistant Microscopy roles focus on supporting microscopy-specific tasks, often requiring specialized training in microscopy techniques. Laboratory Technicians have broader responsibilities across various lab procedures, with more emphasis on general laboratory skills. Both roles are essential in research and medical settings, but Assistant Microscopy positions are more specialized in microscopy work.

    Founded in 1819, the University of Cincinnati ranks among the nation’s best urban public research universities. Home to more than 53,600 students, 12,000 faculty and staff, and over 360,000 living alumni, UC, a Carnegie 1 institution, combines research prowess with a physical setting The New York Times has called “the most ambitious campus design program in the country." UC's momentum has never been stronger as the anchor of the Cincinnati Innovation District, the oldest cooperative education (co-op) program in the country with students earning $94 million annually through paid experiences, an academic health system, and as a member of the Big 12 Conference. The university contributes $10.6 billion in economic impact to the city and $22.7 billion to the state of Ohio. At UC, next is all of us. Learn more at uc.edu.

    Job Overview

    We are looking for a Postdoctoral Fellow to join our molecular parasitology team in the Lander laboratory under the supervision of Noelia Lander (https://homepages.uc.edu/~landerlab/wordpress/) at the University of Cincinnati. Dr. Lander’s recent funded NIH grant involves multi-disciplinary studies, and includes genetic manipulation of trypanosomes, phenotypic analyses of mutant cell lines, mammalian cell culture, proteomic and transcriptomic analyses, enzymatic activity, and state-of-the-art microscopy techniques, among other approaches to investigate cell signaling mechanisms in trypanosomatids. We have extensive experience in genome editing and cell signaling in T. cruzi (https://researchdirectory.uc.edu/p/landernm). The Postdoctoral Fellow selected will train in a vibrant and nationally recognized academic setting.

     
    Essential Functions
    • Under the close supervision of the primary investigator, conduct research experiments in molecular parasitology with the goal of better understanding cell signaling mechanisms in trypanosomes that could lead to the development of novel strategies for Chagas disease control.
    • Perform functional analysis of proteins involved in cell signaling in Trypanosoma cruzi.
    • Learn and apply cellular and molecular biology techniques such as cell culture, gene editing, fluorescence microscopy, gel electrophoresis, western blot analysis, and phenotypic analysis of trypanosome cell lines.
    • Gather and analyze data and develop new ideas that promote current research in trypanosome biology. Prepare data summaries, reports, manuscripts and presentations of research results.
    • Participate/assist in manuscript writing for publication in scientific journals and/or presentation.
    • Keep informed of developments in field to maintain and enhance professional expertise. Lab maintenance, including equipment maintenance and ordering of supplies, as needed.
    • Teach laboratory protocols and techniques to others, train, and mentor junior research staff.
    Required Education

    Prior to the date of appointment, a Doctoral Degree in Cellular Biology, Molecular Biology, or related field.
