Research assistant. Interesting + flexible work. @stanford.edu
Location:
Stanford, CA
Description:
An alum needs help exploring under-explored scientific hypotheses. (This work is non-commercial and for advancing cancer understanding.) Assume these ideas are wrong with 99.999% probability. In the worst case, you earn money to learn about cancer metabolism, molecular biology, immunology, and other fascinating topics and laugh about this job in 10 years. In the best case, you change conventional wisdom about cancer. All from your couch. The job entails answering basic questions, researching past experiments, and designing new experiments. See example tasks below. Hours are flexible. Work is remote. Requirements: passion, open-mindedness, and an analytical mind. Deep experience is not required and arguably detrimental given our focus to challenge conventional wisdom. Please send your resume and hourly rate to XXXX@stanfordalumni.org . ================= Example Questions ================= * What are the flaws in the 2020 PCAWG study ( https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-XXXX-6 )? * What are the most common translocations that occur in breast cancer? * What are the key commonalities and differences between breast cancer patients in America and Asia? * How much would it cost to obtain triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) tumor samples? * What are all the MYC promoter sequences? * How often is MYC translocated in non-BL cancer cells? * How much would it cost to reproduce this experiment: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31901251 * What recent experiments demonstrated PARP-resistance? * How much would it cost to obtain nucleotide sequences of ecDNA samples? ================= Qualifications ================= * 2+ years of cancer research experience * Breast/lung cancer research experience (optional) * CRISPR experience (optional) * Deep experience is not required and arguably detrimental given our focus to challenge conventional wisdom
