Work Study Position Available in
The MARS Facility
|
The Microbial Analysis, Resources and Services (MARS) facility supports the research community of the University of Connecticut specializing in the analysis of microbial samples and high-throughput processing of nucleic acids. Examples include the characterization of microbiomes (Bacterial V4 or custom amplicon), sequencing of small genomes, 96-well and 384-well PCR setup or DNA quantification and other automated liquid handling applications. Services are available a la carte, ranging from fee-for-service to unassisted use of the equipment by trained and certified users.
The MARS (Microbial Analysis, Resources & Services) Facility has an opening for a Student Research Trainee. The trainee will assist the facility scientist and student technicians with clerical tasks, inventory management, and general lab cleaning. Ideally, the trainee will take on more responsibilities as their time at MARS progresses. There is potential for promotion to technician for motivated students.
