  • Stay up to date on relevant literature, identify novel protocols/procedures that may be applicable for Colossal projects, and conduct associated experiments to continuously improve results.
  • Maintain stable rates of success and troubleshoot protocols as needed.
  • Some traveling required for training and implementing novel assisted reproductive technologies into non-model organisms

Required Skills and Abilities:

  • Strong expertise in comparative reproductive biology, including endocrinology, oocyte maturation, and pre-implantation embryo development.
  • Experience with multiple species, including non-traditional (wildlife) models preferred.
  • Transrectal palpation and ultrasound for monitoring ovarian activity and early pregnancy.
  • Transvaginal and/or laparoscopic oocyte collections.
  • Gamete and embryo cryopreservation.
  • Strong communication skills (written/verbal)
  • Ability to work independently, with members of the Animal Operations and Embryology teams, including veterinarians, scientists, and animal husbandry experts.
  • At least three years of experience with oocyte collection, embryo collection/production, and embryo transfer with a track record of successful pregnancies.
  • Must be able to travel, potentially up to 25%

Education and Experience:

  • D.V.M. and/or Ph.D. in biological sciences, veterinary medicine, or a related field.
  • Two years of post-doctoral experience or residency training.
  • Demonstrated track-record of publication in peer-reviewed journals.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
