At the LysoSENS project here in Tempe, we are looking for reinforcements.
We offer:
- The opportunity to truly make a difference and bring SENS research forward (see below).
- Flexible conditions: Your responsibilities will reflect your qualifications. Apply to come for weeks, months or permanently.
- Cutting edge working environment & a reputable entry on your CV, see www.biodesign.org
- Research credits for a degree at Arizona State, if you are pursuing one. If elsewhere, you can probably get this work accredited, too.
- Enabling financial support, but no competitive salary.
We want:
- The motivation to make personal sacrifices in order to help with curing aging.
- Experience in molecular biology, specifically at least some of the following would be advantageous:
- Culture of microorganisms
- Molecular cloning
- Mutagenesis
- Genetic engineering
- Bioinformatics
- Synthetic organic chemistry
- Analytic organic chemistry (HPLC, MS, NMR, ect.)
- Social & leadership skills
Before the Methuselah Foundation will see massive philantropic donations, it needs to show that it can successfully fund and supervise SENS research. Since the challenge got the gerontologists talking, this seems to be pretty much the only remaining limiting factor. If you think so too, then let's do it. Send me your motivation & resume: Zauberkugel@yahoo.com
You can learn about the basics of LysoSENS here, here, here and here.
Disclaimer: This is a non-binding invitation. The situation presented here may change.
