What are the responsibilities and job description for the Student Lab Assistant position at Piney Technical Services?
We are looking for an immediate addition to our team of Student Lab Technicians. The candidate should be a sophomore or junior student at Iowa State University studying a biological science, available to work 10-15h/week during the semester, and up to 40h/wk during the summer.
Primary responsibilities include: cleaning/sterilizing glassware, cleaning/maintaining lab equipment, sterilization of labware, handling and decontamination of biohazardous waste, stocking supplies in the lab, making reagents, and maintaining all lab spaces.
Our goal is to hire a candidate that is hard working, goal-oriented, and capable of completing tasks on his/her own after a one-month training period. Some experience with lab techniques is preferred, but we are willing to consider candidates who have less experience, but have strong work ethic and learn quickly.
There may be opportunities for doing project related work on early animal vaccine research for several viral and bacterial pathogens. If candidates are available to stay for 40hr/week during the summer, project related work is possible.
We are asking for 10-15h/week, at least 2h/shift (preferably more). Working hours are Mon-Fri between 7am-5pm. Because we are located at the ISU Research Park, only 1 shift per day. Allow at least 15-30 min to get here from campus, longer if using CyRide as transportation.
