We are especially interested in individuals whose research interests build on current or emerging strengths in mammalian animal models of neural circuits/epilepsy as part of a recently awarded Track 1 NSF project, "West Virginia Network for Functional Neuroscience and Transcriptomics" (WV-NFNT). Modern research facilities and cores are available to support investigators’ pursuits. Supervisor: Dr. Randy Nelson

Postdoctoral Fellow Positions

Post Doctoral Fellow - The Department of Neuroscience is seeking several productive, skilled, and highly motivated postdoctoral fellows for several exciting research projects, with overall theme of neural circuit plasticity during development and in response to rearing conditions, sensory discrimination training, or stress. This position is part of a recently awarded project entitled, "West Virginia Network for Functional Neuroscience and Transcriptomics" (WV-NFNT). Supervisors: Dr. Eric Horstick

Laboratory Technician/Manager Positions

Laboratory Technician - The Department of Neuroscience/Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute is seeking a Laboratory Research Technician, joint between the laboratories of Morgan Bridi and Michelle Bridi. The selected candidate will support projects related to synapse and circuit function in models of stroke. The labs employ several neurophysiological approaches utilizing mouse models, including in vivo imaging, sleep studies, behavioral testing, and physiological recordings from acute brain slices. Supervisor: Drs. Michelle Bridi & Morgan Bridi

Temporary Research Assistant - We are seeking to hire a research assistant to assist with mouse studies that address the relationship between Alzheimer’s disease and periodontal disease. Supervisor: Dr. Candice Brown
