This role primarily applies tissue-specific clearing techniques followed by volumetric image acquisition to visualize organs and organoids at the cellular level in fixed and living samples. Imaging modalities typically employed include a Zeiss Light Sheet 7 (Gaussian beam) and a Zeiss Apotome, though many other modalities are also available as needed (e.g. laser scanning confocal microscopy, multiphoton microscopy, spinning disk confocal microscopy, and lattice light sheet microscopy). Post acquisition, image data visualization and analysis tools utilized include a patchwork of commercial (Arivis, Imaris, Matlab) and open source (FIJI, Ilastik, FluoRender) software packages. The candidate should be able to understand at times complex mathematical concepts and be comfortable working directly with computer code, though writing code de novo is not required. Hands-on workflow validation (sample prep through analysis) is emphasized, with knowledge gained then being disseminated to our users. Opportunities to participate in marketing and educational activities are available. Continuous learning is strongly encouraged, but this position is a professional scientist role that focuses on applying imaging technologies to accelerate our users’ basic research (not a postdoc).
