The Flow Cytometry Facility at The University of North Carolina at 
Chapel Hill has an opening for a flow cytometry operator.  The 
position is in a busy flow cytometry facility.	More information on 
the Facility can be found at http:\\flowcytometry.med.unc.edu.	In 
brief we have 3 sorters - MoFlo, MoFlo XDP, Reflection and  6 - 
analyzers - FACScan, FACSCalibur (both are 5-color Cytek 
modifications), 3 CyAns (9-color), and a 7-laser 18 color LSRII (on 
order).  The successful applicant would be the fourth member of our 
Facility staff and will be primarily responsible for operating a 
sorter but also the analyzers and especially advising users 
(technicians, graduate students, postdocs, investigators) on the 
instrument, applications, and data analysis.  Requirements are 3 
years (or more) experience operating, on a daily basis, preferably a 
MoFlo, Influx, or FACSVantage.	Experience on a B-D FACSAria may  be 
considered.  Applicant must have a very good grasp of all flow 
cytometry principles, especially sorting, experience with a wide 
range of flow cytometry applications, great computer/software and 
communication skills, and, especially, be self-motivated and 
energetic.  An aptitude for working with complex 
instrumentation  (i.e. not just operating) and an ability to think 
through and troubleshoot problems is a must.  We envision the 
position being a Research Associate but depends on qualifications - 
salary will be commensurate with 
experience/qualifications.  Interested individuals should contact me 
(see below) with CV/resume, references, and statement of salary expectations.
