Title:  Student Helper

Summary

The Ray lab at Baylor College of Medicine has two immediate openings for biotech research device development and production. The Ray lab studies the neural circuits governing our behavior and physiology. A major goal in the lab is to automate our assays for measuring behavior and physiology in our genetic animal models for enhanced accuracy and consistency as well as increasing capacity for data collection. Our studies are currently focused on understanding the mechanisms driving neurological vulnerabilities in infant congenital disorders such as the sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
