Engineer position offer on microscopy facility in Rennes
Organization: MRic Biosit
Position Information:
The recruited engineer will be involved in the day-to-day maintenance of the imaging setups (metrology…) as well as in the training of the users on the different microscopes. In addition, the engineer will participate to the transfer of a single-molecule imaging prototype on the imaging facility. This system was originally developed in collaboration between the imaging facility and research teams from the Institute of Genetics and Development of Rennes (IGDR, https://igdr.univ-rennes1.fr/en). The transfer of the system to the facility will occur in two steps. First, the engineer will perform pilot experiments with a few users with different biological questions in order to identify the components of the setup that need to be optimized for a facilitated use of the setup in the context of an imaging facility (driving software, sample handling….). Once this step completed, the system will be opened to
all users after the establishment of metrology protocols and training procedures. This project will be performed in collaboration with the researchers that developed the single-molecule imaging prototype at the IGDR, Dr. Marc Tramier and Dr. Sébastien Huet.
