**The role**

We are looking for a highly motivated Lab Technician with expertise in lab managing the day-to-day operations of a molecular and cell biology laboratory. This individual will support the lab’s research activities and ensure the smooth functioning of lab operations (such as oversee inventory management and procurement of reagents, consumables, and equipment). He/she will also handle and compile some laboratory procedures, such as laboratory ethical procedures. He/she will work closely with other team members to develop and implement research protocols, maintain laboratory compliance, and assist in experimental work in molecular and cellular biology. Ideally, he/she will have experience with mouse handling.

**About the lab**

In our group, we are investigating the mechanisms controlling the reprogramming of somatic cells, and our final goal is to determine if this reprogramming contributes to tissue regeneration in higher vertebrates.

Differentiation from zygotes has been considered as a unidirectional route in all cells of the body. Recently, however, it has become clear that the reverse path is also possible: the reprogramming of somatic nuclei, i.e. the de-differentiation of somatic cells into pluripotent stem-like cells. To date, reprogramming has been induced in vitro by transferring somatic nuclei into enucleated oocytes, by fusing embryonic stem cells (ESCs) with somatic cells, and by transferring specific factors into different types of somatic cell.

Whether reprogramming can occur in vivo in higher vertebrates and what the molecular mechanisms and genes driving reprogramming remain to be defined. We have recently shown that activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway enhances reprogramming of somatic cells after their fusion with ESCs. Remarkably, the activation of this signalling pathway also controls regeneration in response to damage in lower and higher vertebrates; furthermore, cell fusion is one possible mechanism of regeneration in vertebrates. Our main goal is to determine whether in mice activation of Wnt/β-catenin signalling controls tissue regeneration by enhancing cell-fusion-mediated reprogramming.

**Whom would we like to hire?**

**Must Have**
- You have experience in lab managing and basic methods in cell and molecular biology
- You are willing to work with multiple species, including human and pigs

**Desirable but not required/ Nice to have**
