Full Job Description

Job Description:

Cape Fox Facilities Services is seeking a Biologist to join our team in Bethesda, MD in support of the NIH.

Responsibilities:

Responsible for biosafety measures at the Twinbrook 3 Insectary Facility (TW3-IF) to protect researchers and staff from exposure to insect bites and vector-borne infectious agents.
Responsible for the implementation of protocols and physical barriers to ensure the containment of mosquitoes at TW3-IF.
Oversee researchers conducting experiments with infectious agents and maintain containment of
mosquitoes harboring human pathogens (viruses and parasites) in the high-security area of TW3-IF.
Maintain and manipulate mosquitoes infected with human pathogens in the biosafety section of the insectary.
Develop and implement Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the maintenance and manipulation of genetically modified mosquitoes.
Develop SOPs for the morphological and molecular taxonomic identification of the various mosquito species reared in the insectary.
Conduct regular taxonomic identification of mosquitoes to prevent cross-contamination between different species reared at TW3-IF.
Assist with the experimental infection of mosquitoes with murine malaria parasites.
Oversee the biosafety component of mosquito colony maintenance
Develop and implement SOPs for the production of various species and strains of Anopheline mosquitoes in a secure insectary.

Prepare various media, stock supplies, and other reagents for laboratory use.
Ensure sufficient quantities of selected species and strains of Anopheles mosquitoes are available each week for experimental purposes.
Perform a variety of complex procedures involving molecular biology techniques related to malaria parasites and the mosquitoes that transmit them. As these parasites are human pathogens, some procedures will require work in a BSL-2 environment.
Assist in preparing manuscripts for publication and perform literature searches for laboratory methodologies as needed.
Maintain accurate daily records of experiments and results in bound laboratory notebooks and electronic databases. Make minor modifications or adaptations to established methods, procedures, and techniques to solve workplace problems.
