Scientist I – Advanced Light Microscopy

We are searching for a Scientist to help build next-generation light microscopy systems, predominantly light-sheet microscopes, and to use them to image expanded tissue. The ideal candidate will be team-oriented, with deep expertise in optics and microscopy, hands-on experience with expansion microscopy and tissue labeling, and enthusiasm for working across the full imaging pipeline. You will design, build, align, and optimize custom microscopes; prepare specimens for imaging; acquire large datasets; and analyze them to extract biological insight. This position requires close collaboration with biologists, engineers, and data scientists to ensure that new instruments are both technically excellent and scientifically productive.
