ABOUT YUVAL LAB

The Rinkevich lab investigates fundamental mechanisms of tissue regeneration, wound repair, and stem cell lineage behavior. Our multidisciplinary approach spans from the level of whole organisms to that of single cells, using state-of-the-art mouse genetics, multicolor “Rainbow” and Tetrachimera models, advanced imaging, flow cytometry, and single-cell omics to pursue diverse questions on how tissues/organs regenerate from single stem cells, and what underlies the clinical basis of maladaptive wound repair such as chronic wounds, and organ fibrosis. Our mission is to leverage our basic findings for enhanced repair and regeneration. Our work therefore carries both basic, clinical & evolutionary implications, and has been published in NatureScienceNature Cell BiologyNature Immunology, and Science Translational Medicine journals (to name a few).

Open positions

A. Molecular Biology Technician

A position is available for a highly skilled Molecular Biology Technician. We wish to identify fundamental cellular and molecular principles of tissue/organ regeneration, and develop a knowledge basis for therapeutic strategies in clinical use.

 

Candidates should ideally have a strong background in molecular biology approaches including state-of-the-art DNA/RNA modifications, transformations, cloning including selection and propagation, CRISPR/Cas-9 technology, shRNA, plasmid and construct generation, piggy-back systems, animal transgenesis, recombinant protein expression vectors into bacterial or yeast expression systems. Candidates with additional experience in cell culture and maintenance, cell differentiation, and performing in vitro assays will be given preference. Soft skill includes strong attention to details and excellent communication skills in English language.

 

B. Technician Position in Regenerative Biology and Marine Models

We are seeking a Technical Assistant (TA) to support the daily maintenance and care of aquatic and marine model systems used in regenerative biology research. This position plays a key role in maintaining the health and stability of our in-lab marine models, which are essential to ongoing scientific investigations.

 

Qualifications

a. Master's degree in Biology, Marine Biology, or related field.

b. Strong English communication skills (spoken and written).

c. Experience with zebrafish or other aquatic/marine species is a strong plus.

d. Familiarity with aquatic animal husbandry and facility operations.

 

Welfare Treatment

a. Competitive salary based on the applicant’s work experience and ability (salary negotiable).

b. Social insurance and housing fund, supplementary medical insurance, physical examination and paid annual leave.

c. Opportunities for career development and available professional guidance.
