Postdoctoral Fellowship at CSHL

Postdoc positions are available for scientists who are interested in pursuing questions in neurobiology of learning/memory, neurological disease/disorder, and neuron-cancer interfaces using unique multidisciplinary approaches including structural biology, electrophysiology, biochemistry, reagent development/engineering, and cellular imaging at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) in New York.

Our lab conducts a combination of biochemistry, cryo-EM/crystallography, molecular dynamics, electrophysiology, antibody engineering, compound development, and cellular imaging. We also have collaborators in neuroscience, cancer biology, chemistry, and artificial intelligence molecular screening. CSHL is equipped with Titan-KRIOS electron microscope/K3 direct electron detector and has a convenient access to the NSLS-II synchrotron beamlines (AMX and FMX). CSHL has solid core facilities including antibody production, imaging, CRISPR/RNAi, animal, etc. Our group together with CSHL offers a unique training environment for research and career development (e.g. workshop, CSHL meetings & courses). Please visit http://furukawalab.labsites.cshl.edu/ for specific details on research, publication, lab culture, and training track record before you apply. A qualified applicant should hold Ph.D. or expect to hold Ph.D. within 1 yr in the area of biochemistry/molecular biology, biophysics (structural biology, electrophysiology, smFRET, etc), or neuroscience. Electrophysiologists and molecular neuroscientists in addition to structural biologists are highly encouraged to apply.

Please send a CV and a cover letter briefly describing current research and future research interests in our lab (please read http://furukawalab.labsites.cshl.edu/join/) directly to Hiro Furukawa at furukawa@cshl.edu. Lastly, the start date can be delayed until 2021 to adjust for the current US visa restriction.
