Our Mission is to Map the Universe of Biology. As the pioneer in the field ofspatial biology, NanoString enables scientists across the globe to envision molecular interactions in three dimensions with three different systems, thenCounter Analysis System, theGeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler(DSP) and theCosMx Spatial Molecular Imager(SMI) platform. As a result, scientists can see the multiomic expression of genes and proteins in the natural context of tissue structure. The secret sauce to the company's success is our people, who are committed to excellence and dedicated to catalyzing the next biological revolution. Collectively, we live our corporate values of ambition, grit, ingenuity, authenticity, and customers every day. Summary The Manufacturing Lab Technician is responsible for supporting the production of reagents used in various NanoString Analysis Systems, for example, nCounter and GeoMx.
