practice.

Qualifications:

• PhD in Biology, Biochemistry, Biophysics, Bioengineering, Cognitive Science,
  Psychology, or related fields, or equivalent combination of degree and experience. Background in working with mice and managing mouse
  colonies.
• Experience with ex-vivo or in-vivo patch clamp electrophysiology from living mice, brain slice preparations, or brain
  recording methods.

Responsibilities:

• Conduct independent scholarly research and develop new
  methods and protocols.
• Participate in project planning, data recording, and evaluation.
• Acquire technical, lab management,
  and grant writing skills.
• Participate in seminars, lectures, poster sessions, and national meetings.
• Supervise junior lab
  members.
• Assist with other research projects (if interested)

Job Description:
We are seeking a
highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to join our team at CMSRU and contribute to a groundbreaking project focused on
elucidating the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying minor traumatic brain injury (TBI) and its long-term neurological consequences. As
part of this multidisciplinary initiative, you will utilize mice and eventually porcine models to investigate the effects of mechanical
force transmission to the brain, employing novel injury methods to induce precise and repeatable mechanical insults. Your responsibilities
will include conducting concurrent electrical recordings to track neuronal signaling alterations, flow cytometry, performing behavioral
monitoring and medical imaging to assess long-term effects, and investigating the role of specific proteins. Additionally, you will explore
pharmacological modulation to elucidate their contribution to disease development and conduct postmortem analyses to assess histological and
epigenetic changes. This study offers a unique opportunity to advance our understanding of minor TBI pathophysiology and its implications
for neurological and psychiatric diseases, ultimately paving the way for targeted therapeutic interventions. If you are passionate about
neuroscience research and eager to make a meaningful impact in the field, we encourage you to apply. This is an on-site position at Cooper
Medical School of Rowan University in Camden, NJ, which is right next to Philadelphia.

To Apply:
Please send a
CV, cover letter, and your primary publication to [email protected].
