Job description

An affiliate of Colossal is seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Research Associate to join our interdisciplinary team at the intersection of molecular and developmental biology. This role offers the opportunity to work closely with scientists developing cutting-edge approaches to drive novel applications in the modification of phenotypes in avians. The successful candidate will support ongoing research projects by performing a range of cellular and tissue-based assays, including in situ hybridization, flow cytometry, histology, and immunofluorescence staining. 

This role is based in Dallas, TX. Relocation assistance is available.

Duties and Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with developmental biologists to analyze gene expression and function across different developmental stages.
  • Perform in situ hybridization (ISH) to localize and quantify RNA/DNA targets in tissue and whole embryo samples
  • Prepare and process tissue samples for histology, including sectioning, fixation, and staining (H&E and special stains)
  • Perform immunofluorescence (IF) staining and support imaging/microscopy workflows
  • Conduct flow cytometry experiments, including sample preparation, staining panel setup, data acquisition, and basic analysis
  • Screen constructs in developing avian embryos to quantify expression patterns.
  • Produce transfection reagents to aid experimental workflows.
  • Analyze and interpret experimental data, providing recommendations to guide project direction.
  • Participate in meetings, generate reports, and present findings to ensure alignment with project milestones.
  • Maintain accurate, detailed laboratory records and demonstrate strong organizational skills.

Required Skills and Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree (B.S./B.A.) in molecular biology, or a related life science field with 1 or more years of hands-on research experience in industry or academic research labs.
  • Hands-on experience in molecular cloning, plasmid construction, and plasmid preparation (mini-, midi-, and maxi-prep).
  • Demonstrated hands-on experience with at least two of the following: microscopy (confocal and/or lightsheet), in situ hybridization, flow cytometry, histology, immunofluorescence staining, (experience with all four strongly preferred)
  • Skilled in PCR primer design and PCR optimization/troubleshooting.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet deadlines.
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills, with demonstrated problem-solving abilities.

Preferred Skills and Abilities

  • Experience handling vertebrate embryos.
  • Familiarity with microscopy/imaging software (e.g., Imaris, ImageJ or similar)
  • Experience with transfection reagents (i.e. lipofectamine or electroporation)
  • Familiarity with high-throughput automation platforms for molecular biology workflows.
