The Parasite Biology Lab, led by Dr Gabriel Rinaldi at the Department of Biology is interested in the fundamental biology of parasitic worms that affect over 1 billion people worldwide. The team was relocated to the Department of Biology in October 2024 and is currently in the process of setting up the whole life cycle of schistosomes, which is essential for the generation of parasite material. Parasite material, including all developmental stages of Schistosoma spp, is used to generate large scale bulk and single cell omic databases and validate data-generated hypothesis. We are seeking for an enthusiastic Research Assistant with extensive experience in two main areas: (1) life cycle maintenance of schistosomes; (2) molecular biology and NGS library preparation.
