Title Postdoctoral Fellow / Research Scientist (Ph.D.) in Human Neural Circuit Physiology

School Faculty of Arts and Sciences

Department/Area Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology

Position Description
The laboratory of Prof. Paola Arlotta invites applications for a Ph.D.-level Postdoctoral Fellow or Research Scientist with strong expertise in systems-level electrophysiology and neural data science. The successful candidate will investigate human neural circuit physiology and neuronal dynamics in human brain organoids, with a focus on CNS disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorder ( ASD ).

The Arlotta Lab develops and applies human cortical organoid models to understand principles of human cortical development and how they are perturbed in neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disease. This position will center on high-throughput functional interrogation of human neural circuits and on building new experimental ...
