We invite you to be a part of the UT Southwestern team where you'll discover a culture of teamwork, professionalism, and a rewarding career!
JOB SUMMARY
Works under general supervision to provide routine technical assistance in performance of assignments requiring basic knowledge of fundamental techniques and practices related to particular field of science.
The Department of Biochemistry at UT Southwestern is engaged in vibrant interdisciplinary research at the interface of Chemistry and Biology. Research in the department is centered on understanding how both eukaryotic and bacterial cells function through mechanistic
study of metabolic pathways, their catalytic enzymes and their regulatory processes using a range of tools including the development of chemical probes and molecular and biochemical approaches that fuel new discoveries.
The Dr. Jinfang Wang laboratory in the Department of Biochemistry, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, is currently seeking a Research Technician to join our team. The Wang Lab is dedicated to elucidating the dynamic mechanisms governing cytosolic
and mitochondrial translation (see our recent publication https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-026-71535-4). We accomplish this by integrating quantitative biochemical, single-molecule fluorescence biophysical, structural, and genetics approaches. The quantitative models established in our work will pave the way to understand how protein synthesis in either of the cellular compartments is dysregulated in human diseases and guide the identification of novel therapeutic targets.
This position is well-suited for a recent graduate (bachelor's degree) who wants to gain more research experience before pursuing graduate studies. Experienced candidates are also welcome to apply. When you join our lab, we prioritize your continued development into an independent
scientist. We will work together to help you identify and achieve your goals and develop a plan to tackle an important question. We also will enhance your ability to think critically and communicate effectively, skills transferable to any career path. In these exciting, early
years of the group, we are looking for people who are up to the challenge to help build our research group from the ground up.
Expectations:
  • Be self-motivated and excited about biochemistry, RNA, and translation.
  • Active participant in lab meetings, including presenting their own data.
  • Assist senior lab mates with experiments and/or experimental analysis for most of each workday.
  • Perform independent and guided reading into relevant topics for the project.
  • Keep a strong lab notebook and communicate experimental plans/issues.
