The Human Biology Facility (HBF) provides support and expertise to enable research utilising human materials and data, and to develop capability in core areas relating to stem cells, genetic modification and human model systems. We provide support to Crick researchers, including our growing number of clinical scientists, throughout the study lifecycle including sourcing human materials, navigating governance frameworks, evidencing compliance, and providing expert technical services. We facilitate access to tissues, data, and expertise that will underpin our research to benefit human health.
This SLRS Gene editing role will sit within the HBF remit, however, will work in collaboration with the existing Gene Modification Service (GeMS) and the Human Embryonic Stem cell Unit (HESCU). The primary focus is on supporting extensive editing work with human cells, particularly pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), using advanced CRISPR/Cas strategies. Services offered encompass creating custom-edited cell lines with various allele types, stem cell training, and project consultation. With the support of GeMS, you will play a pivotal role in the setup and development of this service for the HBF, including critical infrastructure development, equipment procurement, and laboratory layout design.
