Perform routine histology laboratory tasks, including tissue processing, embedding, microtome sectioning, slide preparation, and coverslipping in accordance with established SOPs.
• Develop, optimize, and execute routine histopathology assays, including H&E and special stains, as well as IHC/ISH based assays to support discovery and translational research needs.
• Design, run, and maintain multiplex tissue based assays (e.g., multiplex IHC/IF), ensuring assay robustness, reproducibility, and data quality.
• Support daily laboratory operations, including sample intake and tracking, reagent preparation, inventory management, equipment upkeep, and coordination of lab workflows.
• Perform routine quality control (QC) of tissue sections, stains, and digital images; document deviations and contribute to continuous process improvement.
• Operate and maintain histology related instrumentation (e.g., automated stainers, microtomes, slide scanners) and coordinate servicing when needed.
• Maintain accurate experimental records, SOPs, and assay documentation in compliance with internal quality and safety standards.
• Communicate results clearly and effectively with project teams; contribute to data summaries, troubleshooting discussions, and cross functional coordination.
Skills:
• Hands on experience with routine histology techniques (tissue processing, embedding, sectioning, staining) in a research or clinical laboratory setting.
• Demonstrated experience developing and running histopathology assays, including IHC and/or ISH; multiplex assay experience strongly preferred.
• Strong understanding of assay QC, reproducibility, and documentation requirements.
• Proven ability to support day to day lab operations in a fast paced, collaborative environment.
• Exceptional attention to detail, with a commitment to data integrity and high quality outputs.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly convey technical information to diverse stakeholders.
• Highly organized, self motivated, and capable of managing multiple priorities while meeting timelines.
Education:
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Biology, Histotechnology, Pathology, Biomedical Sciences, or a related discipline.
