Postdoc Opportunities in Psychology in United States

The Nguyen Lab in the Department of Neuroscience and the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences at The University of Texas at Dallas is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate for NIH-funded research on the molecular mechanisms underlying epilepsy. The lab is a basic and translational neuroscience research environment focused on brain development and the dysregulation of intracellular signaling pathways in neurodevelopmental disorders, including malformations of cortical development and epile...

The Department of Pharmacology at the University of Arizona College of Medicine–Tucson is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a collaborative project on the mechanisms of chronic pain in women’s health conditions, including pelvic pain, endometriosis, and migraine headache. The research will combine established rodent models of endometriosis with complementary in vitro studies using primary mouse and human dorsal root ganglion neurons. The project will examine how hormones and inflammatory med...

The Gibson Laboratory at the Stowers Institute for Medical Research is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate to develop and apply next-generation genome engineering technologies in the reef-building coral Acropora millepora . The project addresses the urgent need for robust genetic tools in coral research and aims to establish a comprehensive CRISPR-based genome engineering platform for a rapidly emerging marine model. The postdoctoral researcher will lead the development and implementation ...

Duke University’s Department of Neurobiology is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to study multiplexing in the primate brain —how fluctuating activity in individual neurons and across neural populations can encode more than one signal at the same time. The project uses Neuropixels to record neural activity in cortical regions, currently including the auditory cortex, with potential expansion to other cortical structures such as the visual cortex. The research focuses on neural representations of...

Carnegie Mellon University’s College of Engineering is recruiting a Research Associate I in the Biomedical Engineering Department for a project focused on understanding the relationships between local field potentials and action potentials recorded from nearby, and the same, electrodes. The role combines data analysis with experimental observation to study these neural signals and determine how they relate to one another. The successful candidate will support research by attending project meetin...

The Lewis Laboratory in the Nancy E. and Peter C. Meinig School of Biomedical Engineering at Cornell University is seeking a postdoctoral associate to develop and apply advanced imaging and labeling methods for studying how the nervous system regulates osteocyte mechanotransduction in bone. This project is centered on two complementary experimental directions: intravital multiphoton imaging of osteocyte signaling during mechanical loading in vivo, and whole-mount immunohistochemistry to map chol...

The University of Colorado lists a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Psychological Health and Suicide Prevention within the School of Medicine’s Emergency Medicine Clinical department at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. The fellowship is centered on psychological health and suicide prevention, offering a postdoctoral research and professional environment connected with clinical medicine and emergency medicine. The position is based in Aurora, Colorado, and forms part of the Universit...

This postdoctoral associate role is based in Neurology at the University of Miami . The postholder will carry out scientific research and studies under the supervision of managing staff, contributing research outputs that support publication and institutional recognition. The position is framed as a general postdoctoral research role within the university's academic medical environment. Responsibilities include conducting research on assigned areas of study, preparing research reports and techni...

The CRANE Lab at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine’s Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center is recruiting a postdoctoral associate for research in cancer survivorship. The fellowship sits within a strong cancer control and survivorship environment and is designed to support mentored research and training for future independent leaders in this area. The position focuses on research that connects lifestyle medicine, cancer survivorship, and data analytics. The lab’s interests includ...
