Position Description
The Pouchelon Lab at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) is seeking highly motivated candidates for a Postdoctoral Fellow position.
Position Responsibilities
Our lab investigates the nature and nurture mechanisms involved in the development of cortical neural circuits and their alterations in neurodevelopmental disorders. More specifically, we focus on the various neuromodulator cues that neurons in early development are exposed to and their effect on the establishment of excitation/inhibition circuits. To tackle these questions, we use multidisciplinary approaches including genomics, optogenetics, viral strategies, mouse genetics, and behavior analysis.
Position Requirements
Education: Candidates must hold a PhD degree in Neuroscience, Genomics, Genetics, Bioinformatics, or a related field.
Skills/Experience: The ideal candidate would have expertise in genomics, genetics, or molecular biology, but other backgrounds will also be considered.
Environment
Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory is a world-renowned biomedical research institution in New York. It has shaped contemporary biomedical research and is the home of eight Nobel Prize laureates. CSHL provides a highly dynamic and interactive research environment and a unique opportunity for timely exposure to advances in various biomedical research fields. Interaction with a broad range of researchers from all over the world through its renowned Meetings and Courses program is a key feature of the institution. We believe that science is for everyone. We have had researchers with a variety of backgrounds and believe in the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Compensation & Benefits
Our employees are compensated in many ways for their contributions to our mission, including competitive pay, exceptional health benefits, retirement plans, paid time off, and a range of recognition and wellness programs. Visit our CSHL Benefits, Postdoctoral Landing & Postdoctoral Fellow Stipend Schedule sites to learn more. The salary for this role is $76,440 per annum. The salary range or hourly rate listed is a good faith determination of potential base compensation that may be offered to a successful applicant for this position at the time of this job advertisement and may be modified in the future. When determining a base salary and/or rate, several factors may be considered as applicable (e.g., years of relevant experience, education, credentials, and internal equity).
We strongly recommend being fully vaccinated for COVID-19; however, it is not a requirement for employment.
How to Apply
A list of available positions is posted and continually updated on our Human Resources website. Before applying to an open postdoc position, please refer to the Laboratory’s faculty list, determine whose work is most in line with your research interests, and write to that investigator directly with a letter of introduction and copy of your curriculum vitae.

Additional Postdoctoral Opportunities
Postdoctoral Fellow – Banerjee Lab – 00399
The Banerjee Lab is interested in how the brain accomplishes the ongoing transformation from sensation to action during natural behaviors. Vocal communication is ideally suited to study natural and flexible sensorimotor transformations. During a conversation, our brain must interpret what we hear and control our vocal response. Recently, we have discovered that a neo-tropical rodent, Alston’s singing mouse, engages in fast vocal interactions, even under laboratory settings.
Postdoctoral Fellow – Cifani Lab – 00888
The Cifani Lab focuses on the transformation from sensation to action during natural behaviors. We study vocal communication to understand natural and flexible sensorimotor transformations. Recently, we discovered that Alston’s singing mouse engages in fast vocal interactions, even under laboratory settings.
Postdoctoral Fellow – Furukawa Lab – 807
The Furukawa Lab is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to explore the molecular underpinnings of neurotransmission, neuroplasticity, and neuron-targeted autoimmunity triggered by cancer. We use a multidisciplinary approach, including structural biology, high-resolution imaging, and electrophysiology. Expertise in cryo-electron tomography, single-particle cryo-electron microscopy, x-ray crystallography, patch-clamp, slice electrophysiology, or molecular neuroscience is advantageous but not required.
Postdoctoral Fellow – Gholami Lab – 00303
The Gholami Lab, led by Dr. Gholami, focuses on understanding the host-immune cell interactions and the mechanisms by which the immune system and tumor microenvironment play a role in liver metastases. The research aims to develop novel immune augmenting therapies and practice-changing clinical trials.
Postdoctoral Fellow – Hou Lab – 0078
The Hou Lab is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow starting in Fall 2023 or Spring 2024. The lab studies how the brain controls movements and natural behaviors, including how the brain coordinates muscles of facial expressions to convey internal states.
