Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Neurological Disorders

2 days ago


San Francisco, California, United States University of California Full time

At the University of California, we are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join our team in the Department of Physiology. Our research focuses on understanding the complex interactions between neural tissues and bodily fluids, specifically in regions surrounding the brain's ventricles.

We aim to uncover how cells at these critical interfaces regulate signals like hormones and metabolites, and contribute to neurological disorders. Key aspects of our research include:

  • Developing precise genetic and viral tools to target specific cell types
  • Deciphering cellular and molecular pathways using advanced techniques

The successful candidate will have opportunities to explore new techniques, participate in collaborations, attend conferences, present their work, and engage with the broader scientific community. We offer strong support for career development, including assistance with fellowship and grant applications. International scholars are warmly welcomed.

This position requires a PhD in Physiology, Neuroscience, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, or a related field. Prior experience in brain slice electrophysiology, voltage or calcium imaging, mouse disease models, protein biochemistry, and cell culture is an asset.

We estimate a competitive salary range of $60,000 - $80,000 per annum, commensurate with experience. Benefits include supplemented health insurance and housing support in San Francisco.
