We believe that high-performing teams drive groundbreaking medical discoveries and invite all applicants to join us and experience what it means to be part of Mass General Brigham. Job Summary We are seeking an experienced Research Technologist to lead our noninvasive fetal sequencing project (NIFS). Standard noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) relies on cell-free DNA (cf DNA) analysis from maternal plasma but is restricted to detecting common aneuploidies and some microdeletions. We have developed a high-resolution, noninvasive fetal sequencing approach that can detect clinically significant fetal variants with comparable accuracy to NIPT, eliminating the procedural risk of invasive testing. The candidate will be responsible for optimizing our current NIFS protocol to improve our cf DNA recovery and to validate those results against the current diagnostic gold standard. The Talkowski Laboratory in the Center for Genomic Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and the Stanley Center for Psychiatric Research at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard are seeking a motivated, enthusiastic, experienced leader to join our research teams. Our group explores the impact of genomic variation on human disease, with a particular focus on the relationship between genome structure and function. We are dedicated to the development and application of innovations in genome sequencing technologies and genetic diagnostics.
