About this position

GIST and KIST are recruiting up to 5 postdoctoral researchers for the REMAP (REprogramming Metabolism And Plasticity) joint initiative.

The project focuses on developing a non-invasive brain stimulation platform using ultra-high-frequency magnetic stimulation to address Alzheimer's disease through two complementary directions: metabolic rescue and plasticity recovery.

This is a strong fit for researchers in neuroscience, biomedical engineering, medical science, biology, and related translational fields, especially those with interests in neuromodulation, neurodegeneration, metabolomics, and brain stimulation technologies.

What stands out about REMAP is the emphasis on independence: selected postdocs are expected to lead their own projects, receive dual mentorship across GIST and KIST, and follow a structured path toward becoming an independent PI.

Funding is substantial, with up to KRW 150M per year covering salary plus an independent research fund. The appointment can last up to 5 years.

Eligibility highlights include being within 5 years of the PhD and having a strong research interest in the listed areas. The post is explicitly for postdoctoral researchers, not PhD or master's applicants.

Announcer: Euiheon Chung, Full Professor in Biomedical Science & Engineering at GIST. The post also references KIST BINGRE Lab led by Dr. Hoon Ryu and GIST Neurophotonics Lab.

Application details are said to be in the first comment of the original LinkedIn post. No deadline was stated in the provided content.

Funding details

Up to KRW 150M per year including salary and an independent research fund. Appointment can be up to 5 years.

What's required

Applicants should be within 5 years of their PhD. The post is aimed at researchers interested in neuromodulation, neurodegeneration, metabolomics, translational neuroscience, and non-invasive brain stimulation. Candidates should be motivated to lead an independent project and work across a dual-mentorship environment spanning GIST and KIST.
