Proficient in cellular immunology techniques, including multi-colour flow cytometry, cell isolation and ELISA.
Experience with molecular biology techniques, including RT-qPCR and RNA sequencing.
Experience supervising and mentoring students and research staff.

Personal Qualities

Excellent written and verbal communication skills with a collaborative approach.
Strong attention to detail and commitment to high-quality, reproducible research.
Highly organised, reliable and able to manage competing priorities effectively.
Adaptable, proactive and committed to continuous learning.

Desirable Knowledge and Skills

Experience with specialised environmental and metabolic housing systems that support pre-clinical research (e.g. Oxymax-CLAMS, Promethion).
Expertise in metabolic phenotyping, including Seahorse assays, mitochondrial function and metabolomics.
Experience in stress physiology, including corticosterone measurements and glucocorticoid receptor signalling.

Terms of Appointment
This position is 2 years in a full time capacity. Salary is Research Employee Level A6-8 ($107,194 - $115,059) or Level B ($121,124 - $143,826) dependent on experience. Very attractive salary packaging options are available for general living expenses, meal entertainment, novated leasing and more. 12% superannuation payable, plus up to a further 5% after the first 6 months of service via our matching superannuation scheme.
