Postdoctoral Associate | Hearing and Balance, Tarchini Lab

Bar Harbor, United States The Jackson Laboratory Full time

The Tarchini Lab at The Jackson Laboratory is seeking a Postdoctoral Associate to complete a team currently composed of two postdocs, one research assistant and rotating students or shorter term trainees. The laboratory focuses on cell polarity mechanisms and their impact on the morphogenesis of sensory "hair" cells in the mouse auditory and vestibular organs, including hearing and balance ability. We are particularly interested in discovering new protein complexes organizing and elongating the stereocilia bundle, the apical hair cell compartment capturing sound or head movements. We are also interested in understanding how these proteins respond to damage, and more generally, to ask whether the molecular machinery assembling the stereocilia bundle during development could be leveraged to regenerate these structures after injury. We are independently funded with two R01 grants from NIH.

The Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine, USA, is recognized internationally for its excellence in research (e.g., The Nathan Shock Aging Center and Center for Novel Alzheimer's Disease Models), unparalleled mouse resources, outstanding training environment characterized by scientific collaboration, and exceptional core services - all within a spectacular setting adjacent to Acadia National Park. Translational research collaborations in genomics-based, personalized medicine are fostered through our JAX Genomic Medicine campus in Farmington, CT. In addition to lab-based training, JAX has developed a unique program for trainees to expand their professional skills in science communication, entrepreneurship, teaching, mentoring and laboratory management to best prepare postdocs for future career opportunities.

Responsibilities

Ability to plan, execute and analyze an independent research project is essential, as well as exceptional verbal and written communication skills. Preference will be given to self-motivated and career-oriented individuals.

Qualifications

Recently awarded Ph.D. in developmental cell biology, neuroscience, or related field;
Experience with fine dissection techniques;
Good fine motor skills and depth perception are essential;
Expertise with inner ear biology and mouse genetics are preferred;
Close consideration will be given to applicants with experience with quantitative live imaging or inner ear surgery.

To apply, please submit (1) a one page (maximum) cover letter, describing research accomplishments and elaborating on why this position in particular would represent a mutually beneficial opportunity based on your research interests and skills; please note: Applications without a cover letter will not be considered; (2) a current CV; and (3) names and contact information of three references.
