The Research Postdoctoral Fellow is a "research trainee" for the purpose of enhancing and developing research competencies in laboratory or clinical research settings and may engage in any of the following activities. The research postdoctoral fellow will assist faculty in the conduct of research and reports to a principal investigator or CNRI Center Director. They may serve in several roles in the laboratory setting, depending on the scientific specialty and needs of the research project supported. They may participate directly in the design and conduct of experiments and therefore need technical knowledge and subject matter expertise encompassing several disciplines, such as molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, genetics, physiology or animal science, as well as epidemiology, health services research, clinical research, trial design and human subjects protection, as applicable to the focus of the lab. Based on experience, the research postdoctoral fellow may train staff, graduate students and others in experimental procedures and study execution. The fellow will exercise general supervision in the workspace and assist with data management and analysis. In addition, the research postdoc fellow will be responsible for assisting the principal investigator in the planning and execution of research projects, grant applications and publications. They may further assist in the management of resource allocations, and may manage day-to-day activities for the research project, such as purchasing, oversight of laboratory animals, radioactivity and biosafety issues or human subjects enrollment and protection and regulatory reporting. We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher with a strong background in systems neuroscience, particularly in circuit-level analysis of sensorimotor and cerebellar function. Ideal candidates will have demonstrable expertise in at least one of the following domains: (1) in vivo calcium imaging using fiber photometry or miniscope-based approaches in awake, behaving rodents; (2) in vivo or ex vivo electrophysiological recording, with experience targeting deep structures such as the cerebellar nuclei or inferior olive; and/or (3) molecular neurobiology techniques applied to the study of synaptic plasticity, such as quantification of AMPA receptor trafficking, kinase activity assays, and the use of phosphorylation-state-specific mutant constructs. What you'll do: Lead cutting-edge in vivo electrophysiology experiments in rodent social contexts Decode neural circuits underlying social behaviors with precision recording tools Design and run behavioral assays, analyze spike/LFP data, and publish in top journals Who you are: PhD in neuroscience, physiology, or a related field Expert in rodent handling, stereotactic surgery, and neural recording (e.g. patch clamp, silicon probes) Solid background in data analysis (MATLAB/Python) and a track record of publications Why join us: Collaborate in a fast-paced, interdisciplinary lab Mentored environment with strong publication & career support Qualifications Minimum Education : Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) (Required) Or Medical Doctor (M.D.) (Required) Required Skills/Knowledge : Completed training in a specialty in a field of research. Demonstrated potential for successful career in research and related scholarly achievement. #J-18808-Ljbffr Children's National Medical Center
