Sofia Lizarraga, Assistant Professor

We are studying the role of histone modifiers in human neuronal development using stem cell based models. The research assistant will conduct experiments with various human-induced pluripotent stem cell lines using cellular and molecular approaches. In addition, this person will be responsible for ordering supplies, keeping the laboratory organized, helping manage hazardous waste, maintaining the chemical inventory, and routine equipment maintenance. This person will also be expected to contribute to the intellectual environment in the laboratory by participating in the laboratory group meetings and helping train undergraduates.
