E11 Bio is a non-profit focused research organization organized under the Convergent Research umbrella and located in Alameda, California. We are pursuing ambitious neuroscience research and operating like a nimble start-up while organized as a non-profit. Read our technology roadmap for more.

Position

E11 Bio is seeking a creative and passionate spatial omics scientist to co-develop next-generation technology for high-throughput connectomic imaging using molecular barcodes. As a core member of the E11 team, youll develop innovative methods for highly-multiplexed imaging of protein barcodes at the scale of mammalian brains. Working closely with world experts in cellular barcoding and computational connectomic reconstruction, youll design spatial omics and barcode detection experiments, collect, analyze, and interpret multiplexed image data, and present or publish open scientific results for public benefit.

Responsibilities

• Develop proteomics methods (e.g. based on oligo-conjugated antibodies) for highly multiplexed detection of antibodies in expansion microscopy using combinatorial imaging.
• Develop robust signal amplification methods (e.g. rolling circle amplification, hybridization chain reaction) for detection of protein-based cellular barcodes and molecular markers at proteomic scale in swellable hydrogels.
• Design probe sets and combinatorial imaging experiments (e.g., in situ sequencing, MERFISH) compatible with expansion microscopy to detect cell barcodes in brain tissue.
• Integrate and apply automatic liquid handling and automatic fluorescence imaging methods in a robust and reproducible pipeline.
• Process and analyze multiplexed image volumes, including stitching and registration across imaging cycles, and feature detection, decoding and classification.
• Work closely with experimental and computational scientists at E11 and through external partnerships to collaboratively design experiments, analyze experimental data, and interpret results.
• Maintain excellent laboratory notebook practices, prepare reports and manuscripts, and present results internally and externally, and source new techniques from the scientific community.
