Calibration Technician II

ALLEN INSTITUTE

<div>Research Associate II &ndash; Neurobiology of Action
The mission of the Allen Institute is to understand the principles that govern life and to advance health. Our creative and multi-dimensional teams focus on answering some of the biggest questions in bioscience. We accelerate foundational research, catalyze bold ideas, develop tools and models, and openly share our science to make a broad, transformational impact on the world.
The mission of the Allen Institute for Neural Dynamics is focused on fundamental discoveries in systems neuroscience. We are interested in how the brain builds our understanding of the complex world to guide the flexible behaviors that address our biological needs. The answers will be in terms of defined neuron types and circuits interacting across the whole brain and body. We will develop next-generation methods and theories and employ a team-based approach to discovery neuroscience. Knowledge, data, models, and tools will be widely shared to support the development of therapies for brain disorders.
We are seeking a Research Associate II that will work directly with the Neurobiology of Action team to support a project aimed at dissecting the neural circuit mechanisms underlying peripheral organ control. The ideal candidate will be team-oriented, have knowledge in neuroscience and immunology, and a strong interest in mapping, and probing brain-wide circuits and peripheral organ activity. The goal is to make fundamental discoveries about identified cell types within brain circuits during brain-body interactions.
At the Allen Institute, we believe that science is for everyone &ndash; and should be open to everyone. We are dedicated to combating biases and reducing barriers to STEM careers more broadly.
We also believe that science is better when it includes different perspectives and voices. We strive to make the Allen Institute a place where everyone feels like they belong and are empowered to do their best work in a supportive environment.
We are an equal-opportunity employer and strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply for our open positions.
