Job Description
BACKGROUND
The National Biodefense Analysis and Countermeasures Center (NBACC) is a one-of-a-kind facility dedicated to defending the nation against biological threats. Its work supports DHS and National biodefense preparedness planning, response, emerging threat characterization and bioforensic analyses. It is the first national laboratory created by DHS in response to biodefense gaps identified following the Amerithrax attacks of 2001 and has been operated by the Battelle National Biodefense Institute (BNBI) since 2006. Since its inception, NBACC and its staff have filled critical shortfalls in our scientific knowledge of biological agents needed to protect the public and defend the Nation from biological threats, whether naturally occurring, accidental, or deliberate and provided federal law enforcement with scientific data to support the investigation and attribution of biocrimes and protection of the US bioeconomy. NBACC includes two centers: the National Bioforensic Analysis Center (NBFAC), which conducts the technical analyses in support of federal law enforcement investigations, and the National Biological Threat Characterization Center (NBTCC), which conducts experiments and studies to obtain data required for a better understanding of biological vulnerabilities and hazards. Together these centers offer a unique national resource for understanding the risks posed by biological agents and emerging technologies to inform biodefense policy and response planning and the operational capability to support the investigation, prosecution, and prevention of biocrimes and bioterrorism. PRIMARY FUNCTION Works with a team of scientists in the NBFAC at Biosafety Levels 2, 3, and 4 to develop, evaluate, and optimize immunoassays for toxin and microorganism detection, and to isolate, identify, and characterize viruses. Participates in casework involving viral culture and toxin detection from forensic evidence, following the ISO 17025 standard, in support of the FBI and other federal partners. Assists with project management and reporting of results. MINIMUM REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS • Requires a PhD (or equivalent) in a scientific discipline or engineering, and less than 2 years related experience; may include post doctoral experience.BNBI prohibits discrimination and employs and advances individuals without regard to race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, disability or veteran status.
