The Fernández-Mariño lab is seeking to hire a postdoctoral fellow. The position will focus on university compliance, lab organization, and inventory, and has reserved time (approximately 50%) to contribute to other aspects of the lab’s research. These aspects include pioneering new tools/techniques, developing/performing mouse surgeries, and conducting experiments in collaboration with other members in the group. This would be an excellent position for someone who enjoys teamwork in a lab, conducting experiments, and has a strong interest in a longer-term position. The lab is located within the University of Colorado School of Medicine Department of Physiology & Biophysics and the Aurora/Denver Anschutz Medical campus. Postdoctoral fellows will benefit from a multidisciplinary, vibrant, open, and collegial department. The Fernández-Mariño lab provides rich opportunities to interact with other biophysics and physiology laboratories within the department,  also with an even larger collection of systems neuroscience laboratories studying the neural basis of sensory-motor behaviors.
