| Research Staff Assistant | Manhattanville | Columbia University's Mortimer B. Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute unites world-class scientists across diverse academic disciplines to conduct groundbreaking research that transforms our understanding of the brain and its influence on the mind and behavior. As a leading neuroscience institute, our mission is to decipher the mind and brain to better understand behavior. Our researchers are committed to foundational science, uncovering the principles that shape how the brain develops, functions, and recovers. With more than 50 labs, the Zuckerman Institute serves as a hub for collaboration, bringing together Columbia’s top scholars to drive research in bold new directions. Located in Manhattanville, our state-of-the-art Jerome L. Greene Science Center provides an inspiring home for discovery in one of the world’s most dynamic cities. The laboratory of Dr. Richard Axel at the Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute has an open full-time position for a Research Staff Assistant (Cephalopod Culture Technician). The research staff assistant will work closely with researchers and report directly to the Principal Investigator to assist with all aspects of the husbandry and culturing practices of our Ascarosepion bandense (dwarf cuttlefish) colony as well as other cephalopod species. The Axel lab is investigating the neural basis of cuttlefish camouflage by developing technologies (e.g. gene editing) in the dwarf cuttlefish and analyzing their dynamic camouflage behavior. The cephalopod culture technician will work directly with the Cephalopod Facility Manager to maintain the cuttlefish facility and run a comprehensive breeding program. Cuttlefish are extremely delicate and sensitive animals. We are therefore seeking a highly motivated and reliable individual who is eager to learn, takes direction and responsibility, and is enthusiastic about our science. This is a full-time grant funded role. | |
