Graduate researcher example responsibilities.

• Lead the in-vitro biophysical and biochemical characterization of homologous recombination and investigate structure-function effects of mutant enzymes.
• Analyze the expression of MZF-1 gene using western blots and RT-PCR.
• Train undergraduate, masters, and PhD-level students on HPLC and UPLC instruments.
• Use of NMR, IR, and TLC to analyze product purity and identity.
• Experience using GC/MS, LC/MS, and NMR to analyze molecules produce in the lab.
