A Laboratory Manager position is now available at the Bone Bioengineering
Labratory in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Columbia University
in city of New York. The P.I. is Professor X. Edward Guo.
Job Description:
The laboratory manager will be responsible for management of a bone
bioengineering laboratory in the Department of Biomedical Engineering
located in the Morningside campus of Columbia University in the City of New
York. The laboratory's principle research aims are to apply engineering and
biological principles to study the microstructure and functions of bone at
both tissue and cellular levels. The laboratory manager will be responsible
for daily operations of the Bone Bioengineering Lab which includes: handle
all ordering, inventory, and invoice-related responsibilities; ensure that
all equipment/software is under contract and proper service; maintain all
device and equipment; orient new employees in lab; train and supervise the
using of all device and supplies; ensure all safety courses; establish,

animal and human study protocols; ensure that lab's safe and clean
environment is maintained; and perform additional related duties and
projects as assigned and when necessary for the full functioning of the lab.
Facilities for research include an established laboratory for hard/soft
tissue mechanics (both theoretical and experimental studies),
micro-indentation, AFM, cellular imaging, micropatterning of cell networks,
cell biomechanics, bone cell mechanotransduction, bone explant
mechanobiology, and bone imaging. Additional information can be found at
http://boneserver1.bme.columbia.edu/, or by contacting Dr. X. Edward Guo
(address below).
Qualifications:
M.S. or equivalent in a Mechanical or Biomedical Engineering discipline AND
at least one-year working experience. Experience in mechanical design,
fabrication, and machine shop familiarity is essential. Candidate should
also have demonstrated ability to perform research tasks in both independent
and cooperative work environments and supervise personnel. Knowledge with
cell culture is beneficial.
Candidates are evaluated on research ability and required expertise. Salary
will be set to a level appropriate for a junior officer at a tier I research
university and commensurate with relevant experience. The position includes
an excellent officer benefits package.
Interested candidates should send curriculum vitae and contact information
for three references to Dr. X. Edward Guo (ed.guo@columbia.edu).
Columbia University is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer.
