Postdoctoral position in systems neuroscience

A postdoctoral position is available at the University of California, San Francisco to study the role of neuromodulatory transmitter dopamine in regulating brain-wide plasticity and motor behavior in the context of Parkinson’s disease.   

The lab, https://pharm.ucsf.edu/guo, composed of four postdoctoral fellows, three graduate students, and two technical staffs, is a productive and nurturing environment for training and career development.  This project employs molecular genetic models in the transparent larval zebrafish and utilizes brain-wide calcium imaging and large-scale data analysis. The applicant should have a recent PhD or PhD/MD degree, be familiar with 2-photon/confocal/light-sheet microscopy and computational coding, and has high quality publication(s) in peer-reviewed journals.

To apply, please send your CV, a brief research statement, together with the contact info of three referees, to: su.guo@ucsf.edu.
