About this position

Postdoctoral researcher in electrophysiology and single-cell biophysics at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid / the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid medical campus in Madrid, Spain.

The project focuses on hair-cell electrophysiology, inner-ear amplification, sensory neuroscience, neurophysiology, and biophysics. The lab is seeking an experimentalist with strong patch-clamp electrophysiology skills to record directly from hair cells and help uncover how the ear amplifies sound. The role also connects experiments to theory and models, with an emphasis on reproducible analysis, code, data, and protocols.

This is a fully funded four-year postdoctoral position starting as early as Autumn 2026. The salary starts at €44,000. Additional support includes funded travel for international collaborations and conferences, visa support, and help with fellowship applications. The lab is newly established, international, and English-speaking, with operational rigs and an interdisciplinary team from day one.

Eligibility highlights: PhD or equivalent in physiology, biophysics, neuroscience, or a related field; strong patch-clamp electrophysiology experience; fluent spoken and written English. The PhD may be awarded or submitted before the start date. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis until 1 September 2026 or until the position is filled.

How to apply: Send one PDF containing a cover letter (≤1 page), CV, and contact details for 2–3 referees to [email protected], copying [email protected]. Use the subject line Postdoc Electrophysiology — [Surname].
