You must be a current university student in biological sciences with basic experience in molecular biology, cell culture, and scientific paper analysis. Strong problem-solving skills and effective communication are key. Knowledge in toxicology is a plus.

You will review literature, assist with experiments, analyze data, present findings, and collaborate with teams to study mitochondrial toxicity in invitro assays.
