About this position

The University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine is recruiting a postdoctoral scholar for the Gonzales Lab to investigate how light regulates vascular function in the choroid and how this mechanism may influence metabolic waste clearance from the retina in age-related macular degeneration.

The project centers on understanding ocular vascular physiology and choroidal signaling using a broad experimental toolkit that combines ex vivo pressurized vascular and intact tissue preparations, high-resolution confocal and two-photon Ca2+ imaging, targeted photostimulation, pharmacological and molecular interrogation of signaling pathways, controlled environmental exposure in animal models, and spatial transcriptomics.

Within the Gonzales Lab, the fellow will contribute across the full research workflow, from hypothesis generation and protocol development to data collection, analysis, interpretation, and manuscript preparation. The role also emphasizes scientific independence and research leadership, with opportunities to shape new directions that align with the lab’s interests and to mentor graduate students, undergraduate students, and other trainees in a collaborative environment.

The lab’s broader focus is on how capillary networks sense tissue metabolic needs and support the delivery of oxygen and nutrients as well as the removal of metabolic waste.

What's required

Applicants must have a PhD, MD, or MD/PhD in Physiology, Vision Science, Neuroscience, Cell Biology, or a closely related field, with a doctoral degree completed within the five years immediately preceding the first date of appointment as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Nevada, Reno. Candidates must demonstrate research experience in ocular biology, retinal or choroidal physiology, or related areas of vision research. Preferred qualifications include experience in ocular vascular physiology, neurovascular signaling, or retinal and choroidal biology; expertise in ex vivo tissue preparations, vascular reactivity measurements, patch-clamp electrophysiology, advanced fluorescence imaging, or molecular biology; and strong scientific writing, communication, and analytical skills.

How to apply

Apply through the university application portal and submit all required materials. Upload a curriculum vitae, a cover letter addressing research background, technical expertise, ocular/vision research experience, and career goals, plus contact information for three professional references. Apply immediately because the posting is open until filled and may close without notice.
