The overarching goal of the laboratory is to understand how the neural circuits and networks are organized to keep us alive and enable complex behaviors and how these networks may be disrupted in disease. This position will be focused on work ranging from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), the leading cause of neonate death in the United States, to panic disorder, the most common mental illness in the United States, and neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s Disease. Our lab is in an exciting expansion phase with multiple new funding awards from the NIH.
We are seeking motivated and well-organized individuals to work in a high energy and cooperative environment. The successful candidate will benefit from working in a rich and stimulating research lab and be part of a group that nurtures a team science approach to study behavior and physiology.
