This work requires scientific rigor, responsible stewardship, and close collaboration across disciplines.\nWe are looking for people who are curious, accountable, and ready to tackle unique challenges. At Bexorg, you will work alongside colleagues who ask thoughtful questions, share ideas openly, and take ownership for moving complex work forward.\nWhether your background is in neuroscience, biology, engineering, data science, or operations, you can help build a stronger foundation for decisions that shape new CNS medicines.\nThe role\nYou will keep our human brain slice cultures healthy and run the daily bench work behind our drug studies. Senior staff will train you on each method, and you will build toward running assays on your own. This is a good fit for someone early in their lab career who is careful, reliable and keen to learn imaging and tissue methods.\nWhat you will do\nCare for organotypic human brain slice cultures and cell cultures: media changes, drug dosing and daily checks, all with strict sterile technique.\nPrepare media, buffers, reagents and drug plates to written protocols.\nRun plate-based assays: CellTiter-Glo viability, and pyruvate and lactate measurements from culture media.\nStain slices with live fluorescent dyes and image them on our widefield fluorescence microscope and slide scanner, following set imaging protocols.\nCut thin cryosections (8-20 µm) from fixed slices on a cryostat, mount them and help with immunofluorescence staining.\nSupport qPCR (RNA extraction, plate setup) and RNAscope in situ hybridization runs under supervision.\nHelp run drug screening experiments in multi-well plates, following plate maps and dosing schedules.\nRecord samples, treatments and results accurately in our sample-tracking and data systems.\nKeep the lab running: stock and inventory, equipment cleaning, waste handling and safety upkeep.\nWork night shifts and weekends on a rotating schedule to keep cultures and assays on time.\nWhat you need\nA bachelor's degree in biology, neuroscience, biomedical engineering or a related field, or an associate degree with relevant hands-on lab experience.\n0-2 years of lab experience, including internships, co-ops or lab courses.\nHands-on sterile cell or tissue culture.\nSolid basic lab skills: accurate pipetting, solution preparation, and use of plate readers or similar instruments.\nCareful, consistent record keeping.\nWillingness to work rotating night shifts and weekends.\nComfort working with human post-mortem tissue under biosafety level 2 (BSL-2) practice, with training provided.\nCan do attitude.\nNice to have\nSome hands-on time with any of: fluorescence microscopy, cryosectioning, qPCR, RNAscope, CellTiter-Glo, pyruvate or lactate assays, or drug screening.\nExperience with primary cells, tissue samples or neural cultures.\nComfort with Excel and basic image tools such as Fiji (ImageJ).\nPhysical requirements\nStanding and working at the bench, hood, microscope or cryostat for long periods.\nLifting 25lbs or more.\nSafe handling of sharp blades, liquid nitrogen, dry ice and human tissue, with personal protective equipment (PPE).","description_format":"text","description_chars":3656,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"associate","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Drug
