About this position

This postdoctoral fellowship is based in the Palczewski Laboratory at the University of California, Irvine, with formal affiliation to the Brunson Center for Translational Vision Research. The project is framed around understanding and treating disorders of the visual system, with an emphasis on eye disease biology, pathology, and translational approaches to restoring visual function.

The fellow will join a highly collaborative research environment that brings together scientists and clinicians working on visual disorders. The fellowship is designed for an investigator who wants to pursue bold, interdisciplinary work and build toward an independent academic career. Research in the lab spans multiple approaches, including chemical and biochemical methods, structural biology, and genetics, and the advertised themes highlight gene therapy, regenerative medicine, and advanced imaging as key areas of exploration.

The role is positioned as a launchpad for high-impact research in visual science, with the expectation that the fellow will lead projects addressing multifactorial vision disorders and contribute to a broader translational mission within the center.
