Job ID: 122543
Research Fellow-LS-Neuroscience–Grinberg lab
Position: Post-doctoral Position
Deadline: 26 April 2025

Country: United States
Institution: Mayo Clinic
Department:
Description:
The laboratory of Dr. Grinberg is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our growing team investigating the basis of sleep dysfunction in neurodegenerative diseases.
This role is part of a multidisciplinary effort to decipher how neurodegenerative processes impact the sleep-wake system, with the ultimate goal of developing effective therapeutic strategies. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in neuroscience or neuroanatomy and a passion for neuropathology. Working closely with neuropathologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, and neuroscientists, you will explore sleep- and wake-promoting nuclei in human brain tissue using neuroanatomical, neuropathological, and molecular tools to generate biological insights with clinical relevance.
This position offers:
* Advanced training in neuroanatomy, histology, quantitative human neuropathology, and molecular technique
* Opportunities to correlate brain pathology with antemortem clinical and imaging data.
* An exceptional research environment for a neuroscientist looking to specialize in dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, sleep, and neurodegeneration.
Qualifications
* Ph.D. in neuroscience, neuroanatomy, or a related field with a strong interest in neurodegenerative diseases.
* Preferred experience in mammalian anatomy, quantitative stereology, and the integration of neuroanatomical and molecular approaches.
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled.
If interested in joining our team, please provide the following:
1. Letter of intent
2. Curriculum Vitae (CV)
3. Three references
