Lab manager

Job description

Our lab at Sheba Medical Center is dedicated to addressing the global decline in male fertility through pioneering translational research. Our mission is to restore reproductive potential in boys undergoing cancer therapy and infertile men, unravel genetic and epigenetic mechanisms underlying germ-cell development, advance innovative CRISPR-based therapies for genetic disorders, and explore groundbreaking solutions enabling same-sex biological families.

We offer co-leadership opportunities, active participation in international conferences, and clear pathways for professional growth and project ownership. Join us to shape the future of fertility care and contribute to achieving the "holy grail" of human spermatogonial stem cell propagation.

Responsibilities

• Design, execute and interpret advanced cell‑culture, FACS, embryo‑manipulation, germ‑cell transplantation and molecular‑biology workflows.
• Mentor trainees and nurture an inclusive, dynamic research environment.
• Lead collaborations that transform bench discoveries into patient‑ready protocols.

Qualifications

• PhD in life sciences; expertise in stem-/germ-cell or reproductive biology.
• Proficient in cell culture, molecular biology (animal work, surgery advantageous).
• Track record of publications; expertise in grant writing.
• Enthusiastic collaborator eager to build a new lab from the ground up.
