What makes us human?  The Fraser Lab in the Department of Biology at Stanford University is seeking a Basic Life Science Research Professional 1 (undergraduate or masters-level) to help us answer this question.  We use human-chimpanzee “hybrid” induced pluripotent stem cells and cutting-edge CRISPR-based tools to understand the genetics behind uniquely human traits such as our bigger brains and much higher risk for Alzheimer’s disease and schizophrenia. Previous work using these hybrid stem cells-- a novel platform recently developed in our lab-- showed that a change in the expression of a single gene is responsible for our unique facial structure and introduced human-chimpanzee hybrid brain organoids as a powerful model for studying the evolution of the human brain (see https://rdcu.be/c0Pj5 and https://rdcu.be/c0Pka for the publications). In the lab, you will work closely with other lab members as well as the principal investigator...
