San Diego, California, United States InsideHigherEd Full time

Job Summary

The Lee Group is seeking highly motivated and accomplished postdoctoral researchers to contribute to our cutting-edge research in understanding the logic of aging and brain disease across multiple species and models. Our team applies an integrative and whole brain network approach, utilizing multi-scale and multiple-modal techniques, including single neurons-barcoding for BRICseq, multiomic single nuclei (sn)-RNAseq and sn-ATACseq, spatial transcriptomics and proteinomics, circuit mapping, in vivo physiological recording, optogenetics, large-scale unbiased behavioral screen, stem cells and gene-editing in embryos.

The Logic of Prodromal AD

We are seeking a researcher to elucidate the logic of where and how AD is initiated and progresses from prodromal phase to AD dementia. The successful candidate will utilize AI with these multi-scale and multi-modal big datasets as well as public datasets to decipher the logic of prodromal AD.

Neural Circuits and Molecular Mechanisms of PD and SCZ

We are seeking a researcher to apply multi-scale and multi-modal approach to elucidate cell-specific circuits, including those mediated by neuromodulators (e.g., dopamine, acetylcholine and norepinephrine) in basal ganglia and basal forebrain, and molecular mechanisms controlling motor (e.g., resting tremor) and non-motor symptoms.

Modeling Human Development and Brain Disease and Regenerative Medicine in Non-Rodent Species

We are seeking a researcher to bridge the gap between mice and human in both basic and translation science, developing blastomere-like stem cells and genetic tools in non-rodent species to uncover the functions of gene and neural circuits underlying embryonic development (e.g., totipotency), brain disease and regenerative medicine.

Requirements

The ideal candidate will have a Ph.D. in neurobiology and disease or related fields, with training in whole brain network approach, multi-scale and multiple-modal techniques. They should be intellectually curious, highly productive, driven to uncover new and impactful biology, and enjoy working in a committed and diverse team.

What We Offer

The Salk Institute offers a competitive salary range of $70,000-$77,500, depending on experience, as well as comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, vision, retirement, paid time off, tuition reimbursement, patient advocacy services, and transit/parking program.

Salk Values

The Salk Community values diversity, equity, and inclusion, and seeks bold and interactive leaders passionate about exploring new frontiers in science. Our collaborative community embraces diverse perspectives and unique life experiences, fostering innovation, and a sense of belonging.
