Samples homogenization;
Total nucleic acid extractions from a variety of sample types;
Molecular testing via real-time PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction);
Using analyzers and other molecular diagnostic methods to detect the molecular presence of pathogens.

What do you need to succeed?

You possess a 4-year degree in a Science-related field; ideally, the degree will be in Molecular Biology (BA or MA) or strong coursework in Biology to include PCR experience.
