弗洛里达州立大学神经科学方向招收博士后
Postdoctoral position available on an NIH-supported training grant in the Chemical Senses at Florida State University to investigate gustatory and olfactory central coding, taste psychophysics, regulation of ingestive behavior, neuromodulation of ion channels, disruption of olfactory sensory signaling and circuitry attributed to diabetes and obesity, anxiety/threat, or gustatory physiology, olfactory bulb synaptic physiology, and TAAR signaling. Applicants will have the opportunity to train in the laboratory of
Dr. Adam Dewan (https://neuro.fsu.edu/faculty/adewan),
Dr. Debra Ann Fadool (http://neuro.fsu.edu/faculty/dafadool),
Dr. Elizabeth Hammock(https://neuro.fsu.edu/faculty/ehammock),
Dr. Wen Li (http://neuro.fsu.edu/faculty/wenli),
Dr. Alan Spector (http://neuro.fsu.edu/faculty/spector/),
Dr. Douglas Storace (https://neuro.fsu.edu/faculty/dstorace),
Dr. Paul Trombley (https://neuro.fsu.edu/faculty/trombley), or
Dr. Roberto Vincis (https://neuro.fsu.edu/faculty/rvincis),
along with mentorship by other preceptors on the NIH institutional training grant (https://opda.fsu.edu/fellowships-and-awards/postdoctoral-fellowships-and-stipend-support/nih-chemosensory-training). Current research focus of these laboratories is to investigate the impact of metabolic disorders (obesity/diabetes) or anxiety/threat on chemosensory function, behavior, and physiology and uses a combinatorial, multidisciplinary approach. We are seeking a creative, self-motivated individual who has strong experimental experiences and the drive to pursue challenging, rigorous studies in the chemical senses. Experimental approaches employed in these laboratories include slice electrophysiology, in vivo awake recording, dynamic clamp, use of optical probes and calcium imaging, whole-nerve recording, optogentic and chemogenetic recording, fMRI, EEG/MEG, behavioral phenotyping, ion channel structure/function studies, protein-protein interactions, whole-animal metabolic phenotyping, tissue culture, psychophysical studies of sensory-mediated behaviors, confocal microscopy, olfactometry, genetically-modified mouse models, transection and lesion analysis of central sensory structures, ingestive behavior phenotyping following gastric bypass surgery, and taste preference testing.
Minimum Qualifications: Only applicants who meet the following qualifications will be considered for the position:
Doctorate (MD and/or Ph.D. in medicine, biology, psychology, neuroscience, physiology, cell or molecular biology) is required.
Recent Ph.D.s are preferred.
Applicant should demonstrate published expertise in one or more of the experimental approaches and strong long-term career ambition as a research scientist in the discipline of Chemical Senses.
USA citizen or permanent resident is REQUIRED. This is a NIH Training Grant and we CANNOT appoint international scholars.
Excellent communication skills, both oral and written.
FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY: Florida State University is a Research Intensive I Institution in the capital of Florida, and has been recognized as a preeminent training ground for scientists in the discipline of Chemical Senses. Candidate will joint our NIH training grant program in it's 25th year of operation. Candidate will join a vibrant community of researchers studying Sensory Systems within the Program in Neuroscience, that includes faculty from the Departments of Psychology, Biological Science, and the College of Medicine, as well as interdisciplinary programs in Molecular Biophysics, Computational Science and Molecular Biology. Our training grant supported postdoctoral fellows gain value added training in professional aspects such as academic leadership roles, grant writing, mentorship of junior laboratory members, teaching, job interview/negotiation skills, oral presentation, and historical/modern experimental design for chemical senses research programs. Florida State has a committed Office of Postdoctoral Affairs (http://opda.fsu.edu/) with an engaged PDA (http://opda.fsu.edu/pda-representitives) that drives a supportive postdoctoral community. Research for this fellowship will be conducted in state of the art building facilities that were opened in 2008. The institute supports fully staffed DNA, microarray, analytical chemistry, imaging, hybridoma, viral, and instrument/engineering design core facilities as well as technical support staff including scientific editor, departmental artist, and machine/carpentry/electrical staff.
Applications: We are hiring for two postdoctoral positions. Position 1 is for one year and is available March 1, 2020 with an absolute start date prior to June 1, 2020. Position 2 is for two years and is available after July 1, 2020 with an absolute start date prior to Dec 1, 2020. Applications should submit (SINGLE PDF) a cover letter explicitly addressing the qualifications for this position; paragraph describing their long-term career goals; 1-2 page research statement (length excludes citations); detailed curriculum vitae; and the names, email, and addresses for three professional references to:
Professor Debra Ann Fadool
