About this position

Postdoctoral Fellow in Neurological Surgery at Indiana University (Naikui Liu Lab), focused on spinal cord injury, neurological recovery, neural repair, and neuroinflammation.

The lab is seeking a full-time postdoctoral fellow to investigate the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying spinal cord injury and to develop therapeutic strategies that may promote recovery. The research uses a combination of in vivo and in vitro approaches, including animal models, molecular and cellular techniques, histological analyses, microscopy, behavioral assessments, and quantitative image analysis.

Applicants should hold a PhD, MD, or equivalent doctoral degree in neuroscience, neurobiology, biomedical sciences, or a closely related field. Required experience includes behavioral testing, Western blotting, tissue sectioning, histology, immunohistochemistry/immunofluorescence, and strong scientific writing and communication skills. Experience with animal models, cell culture, and spinal cord injury surgery is preferred.

This is a research-focused postdoctoral appointment with mentoring in experimental design, data analysis, manuscript preparation, scientific presentation, and career development. Formal teaching and clinical service are not anticipated.

The position is based at the IU School of Medicine Indianapolis in the United States. Visa sponsorship is not available, so candidates must already possess and maintain valid U.S. work authorization. Apply via the Indiana PeopleAdmin portal using the provided application link.
