Lab, Molecular Technologist

A typical day for the molecular technologist includes RNA extraction utilizing a mixture of manual and automated methods, RT-PCR performed via manual pipetting, and sample loading on array chips for final result determination. The technologist would be working with equipment setups for all processes, as well as reagent preparations, specimen management, and assisting with inventory and quality management tasks as needed. This role will spend the most time on specimen management and preparation, in-house control creation and reagent Q.C. testing, and quality control checks and documentation associated with high complexity clinical laboratory testing.
