Function description
Are you a team-oriented research technician with an interest in life sciences, molecular biology and cancer research? Would you like to learn and work in a multidisciplinary team in an innovative laboratory environment? And do you want to contribute to issues in the field of molecular mechanisms that play a role in the development of cancer? Then come and work on behalf of Radboud University at the Netherlands Cancer Institute in Amsterdam!
The Radboud Institute for Molecular Life Sciences of the Faculty of Natural Sciences, Mathematics and Computer Science (RIMLS-FNWI) of Radboud University Nijmegen is looking for a research technician. Radboud University will be your employer, but you will perform your work at the Netherlands Cancer Institute in Amsterdam. Here you will conduct both fundamental and applied cancer research. As a research technician, you independently carry out sub-projects and report to the scientific staff. You will make extensive use of omics techniques, such as (interaction) proteomics and next generation sequencing. In addition, you fulfill a role in performing laboratory management tasks, such as monitoring laboratory use, orders, monitoring safety aspects and regular maintenance of equipment. As a research technician you work closely with other researchers and students. You also maintain contacts with colleagues from other departments and services and with suppliers.
