Genetic scientist vs staff scientist

Differences between genetic scientist and staff scientist duties and responsibilities

Genetic scientist example responsibilities.

• Manage sample inventory via in-house laboratory information management system (LIMS) and implement additional systems for sample and chemical organization.
• Create PCR assays by selecting primers, enzymes, establishing thermo-cycler protocols, and verifying results through electrophoresis and DNA ladders.
• Key activities include process chemistry development, synthesis of intermediates, compound purification and structure identification, and comprehensive scientific documentation.
• Evaluate patient samples to identify biomarkers providing the development of asthma patient stratification methods.

Staff scientist example responsibilities.

• Lead efforts to replace a critical radioactive immunoassay with a non-radioactive format to measure clinical samples.
• Manage clinical sample testing using MSD and ELISA in LIMS, including data review and approval using LIMS.
• Assist in managing and maintenance of HPLC and Prep-HPLC systems to ensure maximum productivity for the process development group.
• Manage pediatric dose development project, technology transfer project and alternate API supplier qualification project on budget and on schedule
• Assist with RNA and DNA extractions from FFPE tissue and blood.
• Supervise temps performing HPLC assays and validations during development and production campaigns under GMP conditions.
