About this position

The University of Miami is seeking a Postdoctoral Associate in Physiology and Biophysics to contribute to experimental neuroscience research in Miami, Florida. The position focuses on how nerve cells communicate and how neuronal signaling contributes to brain function, behavior, addiction, movement disorders, learning disabilities, and other neurological and psychiatric disorders.

The researcher will perform patch-clamp electrophysiology, neuronal recording, synaptic physiology, and ion channel studies. The work combines electrophysiology with live-cell imaging, genetically encoded sensors, optogenetics, and molecular and cellular biology techniques. Genetically modified mouse models and behavioral studies will be used to investigate brain circuits, behavior, and disease mechanisms.

The role also supports research focused on drug discovery for neurological and psychiatric disorders, including investigation of proteins and signaling pathways that regulate communication between nerve cells and brain circuits. The postdoctoral associate will help plan, conduct, analyze, and report research findings while collaborating with multidisciplinary teams.

The research environment is based within the University of Miami and its academic health system, where scientific research is integrated with medical education and patient care. The successful researcher will be expected to contribute to technical papers, scientific reports, grant and manuscript preparation, and the mentoring of trainees.

Funding details

The University of Miami offers a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package including medical and dental benefits, tuition remission, and more. No specific salary amount or tuition coverage details are provided.

What's required

A doctorate in neuroscience, physiology, pharmacology, biology, or a closely related scientific discipline is required. Preferred experience includes patch-clamp electrophysiology and neuronal recording, synaptic or ion channel physiology, molecular and cellular biology techniques, mouse models and behavioral neuroscience, optogenetics, genetically encoded sensors, imaging, or related neuroscience methodologies. Candidates should have extensive knowledge of electrophysiological, molecular, cellular, and systems neuroscience; the ability to independently design, execute, and troubleshoot complex experiments; strong analytical, scientific writing, data interpretation, and communication skills; collaborative ability; and demonstrated ability to mentor trainees and contribute to grants and manuscripts. No previous experience is required in the general qualifications.
