Postdoctoral Scholar Position
Sdbonline, Nashville, Tennessee, United States,
The Jan Lab at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC)Posted 6/14/2024The Jan Lab at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) is seeking a highly motivated and creative postdoctoral fellow to study development and regeneration of the inner ear’s auditory and vestibular systems. We study regeneration in the context of injury models of the hearing and balance organs. By leveraging cutting edge computational tools, combined with systems biology approaches and in vivo models, we aim to decipher mechanisms of mammalian hair cell regeneration.
One of main interests of the lab is leveraging cutting edge single cell transcriptomics to study development and maturation of inner ear auditory and vestibular end organs. This position is fully funded for 3 years.
Required qualifications:PhD or MD/PhD in neuroscience, stem cell biology, developmental biology, or a related fieldExpertise in immunofluorescence, confocal microscopy, and imagingExperience in working with murine modelsRecord of publication in peer-reviewed journalsExcellent problem-solving skillsExcellent communication, leadership, and project management skillsAbility to independently design and execute experiments, interpret data, and identify appropriate follow-up strategiesDesire to learn computational skills, including working in R and PythonHighly motivated, curious and detail-oriented scientist
Preferred qualifications:Experience in auditory sciences, neurosciences, or stem cell fieldsCoding skills in R and/or PythonExperience with cell/molecular biology and biochemistry techniquesAdvanced confocal microscopy imaging skills
Apply by sending a current CV, cover letter, and two reference contacts as one PDF to Taha Jan (taha.a.jan@vumc.org ). Learn more about our lab by visiting https://www.tahajanlab.com
