ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS:
On a path toward improving high school science education, the “Bench Tutorials” were designed as an independent study course in biomedical research in which high school students earn one-year full science credit. Each high school student is paired with a UTMB graduate student, postdoctoral fellow or research scientist mentor, with guidance from a faculty advisor. High school students spend approximately four hours per week in supervised instruction and research in a participating laboratory. Each mentor designs a research project relating to the larger research framework within the laboratory, forecasting completion by the year’s end. Evaluation of student performance is based on attendance, homework and presentation of their research project both during the midterm and at a mini science symposium at year’s-end.
A Ball High School senior student will meet with the Mentor by Zoom or MS Teams for 4 hours/week (excluding holidays, and GISD days off) through early May 2025. Then the student will get to practice the same techniques and read research articles that the Mentor is already using in their own research. This allows the student, who is already strong in science and interested in research, to get a feel for what a researcher does, thus helping them to determine their own career path.
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:
BS, MS or PhD
SALARY: Commensurate with experience.

Any time you conduct a search, the system shows you job matches, ranked by their Relevance Score (RS).
The score is calculated by a proprietary algorithm that uses Intelligent Machine Learning.
The Relevance Score tells you how well the job opportunity matches your search term or terms.
When not logged in, the system is limited to one search term. Scores for single term matches are usually lower.
When you register, log in, and set up multiple terms prioritized by importance, the jobs found for you will receive a much higher Relevance Score.
