Additional Information
The World's Brightest Minds Always Innovate
At St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, we know what can be achieved when the brightest scientific minds face the fewest barriers. That's why we provide world-class facilities, state-of-the-art technologies, and extraordinary support for your research to ensure scientific progress is never halted from a lack of resources. At St. Jude, you will be part of a collaborative, bench-to-bedside environment where you can see, firsthand, how your science translates into survival for the children we serve.
This is an exciting opportunity for a Researcher to join our Center for Advanced Genome Engineering (CAGE). The CAGE has three missions:
Facilitate investigator-initiated genome editing projects using CRISPR-Cas9.
Perform independent R&D to evaluate and develop new genome editing techniques.
Assist the gene and cell therapy programs at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
The CAGE offers a strong team-based environment where you will work collaboratively with other investigators across the institution to support their research needs and develop and improve genome engineering technologies.
