Post-docs
The Smith Lab is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a fully funded multi-year position to study the origins of modular activity in the cortex, as part of our recently awarded CRCNS grant. This research will employ cutting-edge multiphoton imaging and optogenetics together with computational methods to measure and manipulate cortical networks in vivo during development.
See our ad on NeuroJobs for more info. Applications should be sent to gbsmith@umn.edu.
Additional postdoctoral positions available!
The Smith Lab @ UMN is currently seeking creative, talented, and highly motivated scientists interested in investigating the development and function of cortical circuits. We welcome applications from individuals with a broad range of expertise, including optical imaging, electrophysiology, computational neuroscience, molecular biology, and optical engineering.
Interested applicants should send a CV, a brief statement of research accomplishments and future interests to gbsmith@umn.edu.
Graduate Students
The Smith Lab @ UMN accepts graduate students from the Graduate Program in Neuroscience, and is looking to add 1-2 students in the coming year. Students affiliated with other UMN programs should contact Gordon directly at gbsmith@umn.edu.
Research Technician
The Smith Lab @ UMN is looking for a highly motivated and well organized research technician to join our lab.
