Research Assistant I - Laboratory of Dr. Ron Evans

The Research Assistant I will support NIH R01-funded research focused on human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) differentiation and beta cell transplantation for the development of novel cell replacement therapies for diabetes. Working under the direction of the Principal Investigator and in collaboration with postdoctoral fellows, staff scientists, and research collaborators, the incumbent will assist with maintaining human iPSC cultures, performing multistage pancreatic and beta cell differentiation protocols, characterizing differentiated cells, and supporting transplantation studies in mouse models of diabetes.
