We seek to advance basic knowledge and to improve the lives of individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders through a collaborative program of basic and translational research. Our lab uses in vivo and in vitro electrophysiology, calcium imaging, mouse behavioral testing, chemo/optogenetics. Experience with one or more of these techniques is desired but not required. Please visit our lab website for more information.

The Center for Neuroscience Research is a highly collaborative environment and offers outstanding core facilities in microscopy/imaging, genomics/bioinformatics and animal behavior.

We are excited for motivated, independent scientists to join our research group. Candidates should have (or are nearing completion of) a PhD in neuroscience or a related field. Start date is flexible. Competitive salary based on NIH guidelines, plus full benefits.
