Postgrad Position

We are seeking a motivated, trainable individual who is interested in applying cell biology, in vitro and animal model approaches to understand fundamental regulatory mechanisms in hematopoiesis. The successful applicant will obtain training in cell culture, imaging, flow cytometry and fluorescence-activated cell sorting, colony forming unit assays, histology, and complete blood cell counts, as well as a range of molecular biology techniques. The candidate will be expected to have a B.A./B.S. in the field of biological sciences, and have some experience in cellular and molecular hematology, biochemistry, or molecular biology. Candidates should be motivated, organized, responsible communicative, and enthusiastic. Interested applicants should send a brief statement of interest, your work experience and a resume with contact information for three references to the Principal Investigator, Dr. Vanessa Scanlon at scanlon@uchc.edu. If agreed upon, the candidate would then apply for the funded position through the Graduate School. See more information about the postgrad program. If you have any questions about the application process, contact Dr. Barbara Kream at kream@uchc.edu.

Graduate Research Assistant Position

Our lab is associated with the UConn Graduate Program in Biomedical Science (both the Skeletal Biology and Regeneration and Cell Biology Areas of Concentration). We are accepting rotation students from the first-year Biomedical Science cohort. If you are interested in applying, visit the Biomedical Science graduate program at UConn Health for more information.

The Scanlon Lab is also affiliated with the PhD in Biomedical Engineering program at UConn. The link to more information on that program is here: Biomedical Engineering » Application Procedure (uconn.edu)”
