Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Spinal Mechanisms

Explore pioneering spinal mechanisms of motor control at the Krembil Research Institute, part of the University Health Network. This postdoctoral fellowship focuses on neural population integration and motor behavior in mice.

The University Health Network seeks a postdoctoral fellow with a PhD obtained within the last five years to collaborate closely with Dr. Levine on innovative research. Your work will involve investigating how spinal cord cell types influence motor control using circuit tracing, optogenetics, and behavioral tracking. This role presents opportunities to lead research projects and contribute to academic publications and grants.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and design collaborative research projects

• Conduct experimental design and wet-lab procedures

• Mentor students and engage in laboratory discussions

• Write grants and contribute to publications

• Present findings at scientific conferences

Requirements:

• Doctoral degree (PhD) within the last 5 years

• Strong publication record, including pre-prints

• Expertise in optogenetics or mouse genetics

• Proficiency in kinematic analysis or data analysis

• Commitment to advancing research and collaboration

Advance your research career at UHN, delving into the spinal mechanisms that shape motor behavior.
