*******************************************************************************
Rockefeller University is hiring students for 1-2 year biomedical
Research Assistant positions to work closely with senior scientists and
participate in challenging, complex, cutting-edge research projects.
Research Assistants will learn an immense amount of information
about science and discovery. The
learning curve will be steep and the work hours long (on occasion), but it will
all be worth it. The techniques will be
complex and numerous and diverse, spanning the whole spectrum of translational
research from molecular/cellular/genetic/chemical/bioinformatics to in vitro to
in vivo. Your research will take
advantage of the latest technologies and techniques, you will be an integral
part of the lab, participate in journal clubs and lab meetings, and attend
scientific lectures/talks/seminars. The
unspoken luxuries also include our intimate community, extreme preside (number
of Nobel prizes and laureates on-campus), incredible funding and core
facilities, and the perks – our Faculty Club, river view, and living
in NYC!
After a two year period, research assistants go on to the
top Ph.D., M.D. and MD/Ph.D. programs, while some choose to continue on as a
third year researcher to learn more.
Bachelor's in science required. Will consider Master’s
degree. We offer all the great benefits you would expect plus a generous
tuition reimbursement program.
Our Culture:
*incredible haven for some of the best science in the world.
*scientific oasis
*inspiring, collaborative atmosphere.
*strong social and environmental consciousness.
*intellectually curious academic environment.
*14-acre campus setting in NYC.
Follow your passion for excellence in science and join our
researchers in the pursuit of science for the benefit of humanity.
