Lab managers

Running an efficient lab requires delegating responsibilities to current long-term members. If any issues arise, the lab managers are the go-to people to help resolve them. It is expected, however, that you will be an independent researcher in our laboratory, meaning you should be able to resolve minor problems yourself using your critical thinking skills.

There are 20 work-study hours available per week for lab manager(s). Managers will be responsible for general lab management and the daily operations of the lab, including, but may not be limited to:

• Keeping the space clean and safe.
• Maintaining a weekly activity log summarizing lab activity.
• Maintaining drosophila stocks / husbandry.
• Maintaining lab equipment.
• Preparing common lab solutions / food / etc.
• Keeping track of inventory and preparing orders for supplies (chemicals, disposable supplies, etc).
• Orientating new members to the rules and procedures of the lab.
