The Cuddapah Lab at Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital is seeking a motivated Postdoctoral Associate to lead an exciting research project at the intersection of neurogenetic disorders, seizures, and sleep/circadian rhythms. The laboratory is interested in understanding how neurological symptoms are modulated by sleep and circadian rhythms. We are predominantly using Drosophila as a model system but are also interested in cell and mouse models. We seek to leverage diverse perspectives to identify novel mechanisms that will eventually benefit children with neurological disorders.
