Join the Reynaud Lab within the Division of Experimental Hematology & Cancer Biology at Cincinnati Children's, where we study how chronic metabolic conditions such as obesity and diabetes influence hematopoietic stem cell function and contribute to blood disorders and leukemia. Our research seeks to uncover the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate blood stem cell fate and adaptation to chronic stress, with the ultimate goal of developing novel therapeutic approaches.

The Research Assistant will play a key role in supporting laboratory operations, ensuring regulatory and biosafety compliance, managing mouse colonies, and contributing directly to innovative research projects in a collaborative and discovery-driven environment.
