Postdoc Opportunities in Electrophysiology in Portugal

This postdoctoral position at CNRS is based in the CerCo, an interdisciplinary research center carrying out cutting-edge work in cognitive neuroscience. The project focuses on identifying regular variations in electrophysiological markers of attention and their correlates within the autonomic nervous system. The successful candidate will contribute to the analysis of EEG, electrogastrography (EGG), and autonomic nervous system data, helping to advance understanding of brain-body interactions and...

This postdoctoral appointment at the University of Miami is centered on neuroscience research in physiology and biophysics, with a strong emphasis on how nerve cells communicate and how brain circuits are regulated. The position is embedded in an academic medical environment at UHealth / the Miller School of Medicine and offers the opportunity to contribute to research spanning synaptic signaling, neuronal recording, and translational studies of neurological and psychiatric disease. The successf...

The University of Nevada, Reno is recruiting a Postdoctoral Scholar in Physiology to join research on how blood flow is regulated in the brain and retina in health and disease. The project spans neurovascular signaling and disease-focused questions relevant to Alzheimer’s disease , neurodevelopmental disorders , and brain tumor–vascular interactions . The successful fellow will lead in vivo and ex vivo studies using advanced physiological and imaging approaches. The work includes cranial window ...

Linköping University is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join the Pantazis group in an ambitious project at the interface of ion-channel biophysics, protein engineering and cellular excitability. The project aims to engineer novel voltage-gated ion channels that provide new ways to tune the electrical activity of cells. The research will integrate molecular biology, electrophysiology, computational modeling and in vivo validation. The resulting technology is intended to support transformativ...

The Orr laboratory at Weill Cornell Medicine is seeking a postdoctoral associate to investigate glial-neuronal interactions and disease mechanisms in neurodegenerative disorders. The research is based in the Neuroscience Department and Brain and Mind Research Institute, with connections to the Appel Alzheimer’s Disease Research Institute. The project focuses on astrocyte receptor function and immunometabolic cascades, including redox signaling and mitochondrial-nuclear crosstalk. The postdoctora...

The Kim Laboratory at EPFL is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to study how neuronal activity and the physical tumor microenvironment cooperate to drive brain cancer progression. The project focuses on the mechanochemical dialogue between the nervous system and glioma cells. Building on recent work from the group showing that neuron-derived neuroligin-3 engages CSPG4, increases membrane tension, and activates the mechanosensitive ion channel PIEZO1, the successful candidate will investigate ...

The Liman Lab in the Neurobiology Department at the University of Southern California is seeking a postdoctoral scholar to join a research program on the molecular and cellular mechanisms of sensory transduction. The project centers on proton-selective ion channels (OTOPs) and their roles in cellular physiology, with particular emphasis on taste and related sensory systems. The lab’s work builds on prior discoveries about OTOP1 as a proton channel and sour taste receptor, along with studies of c...
