<p>Newly funded postdoctoral positions are available in the Department of Cell Biology at The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California. The laboratory of Anton Maximov is interested in understanding the mechanisms underlying membrane trafficking and exocytosis in synapses. In particular, we are interested in dissecting the molecular architecture of neuronal secretory vesicles and in understanding the mechanisms controlling activity-dependent secretion of neurotrophins. We are also interested in developing new molecular and genetic tools to manipulate with secretion in synapses and in applying these tools to further dissect the role of neurotrophins in synaptic plasticity, development and neurological diseases.<br/><br/>Talented and highly motivated candidates who recently obtained a Ph.D. from a graduate program in neuroscience, physiology or cell/developmental/molecular biology are encouraged to apply. Ideal technical backgrounds include molecular biology, imaging, mouse genetics, electrophysiology and behavior. To apply send a letter stating professional interests, curriculum vitae, and names and contact information of three references to: amaximov@scripps.edu (cc to: anton.maximov@utsouthwestern.edu) or<br/><br/>Dr. Anton Maximov, Ph.D.<br/>Assistant Professor<br/>Department of Cell Biology<br/>The Scripps Research Institute<br/>10550 North Torrey Pines Rd. ICND 210<br/>La Jolla, CA&nbsp; 92037, USA<br/><br/>Preferred start date is January 2008. Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until position is filled.</p>

We look particularly on how local circuit function is perturbed in rodent models of these diseases, using state-of-the-art in situ imaging methods as well as single cell electrophysiological techniques. The scale of work ranges between the synapse to imaging to study how multiple local brain areas interact in the limbic system and cortex. In collaboration our work spans allele to behavior.<p></p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" align="left" style="MARGIN: 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 9.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;"><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;"/><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;"/></span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 7pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Helvetica; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"><p></p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" align="left" style="MARGIN: 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 7pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Helvetica; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"><p>&nbsp;</p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" align="left" style="MARGIN: 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 13.5pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Helvetica; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">Post-doc position at <placetype wst="on">University</placetype> of <placename wst="on">Pennsylvania</placename>, <place wst="on"><city wst="on">Philadelphia</city>, <state wst="on">PA</state></place>&nbsp;</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 7pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Helvetica; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"><p></p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" align="left" style="MARGIN: 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 7pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Helvetica; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"><p>&nbsp;</p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" align="left" style="MARGIN: 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: left; mso-pagination: widow-orphan;"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 7pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Helvetica; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;">&nbsp;The focus of our lab is to understand the relationship between local circuit activity and neuropsychiatric diseases. To do this, we use voltage sensitive dye imaging to assay circuit function in cortex and hippocampus (See Ang et al, J. Neuroscience, 2007). By identifying circuit differences under the influence of drugs or in diseases that produce well-defined cognitive or behavioral affects, this approach focuses on the functional substrate for neurological disorders and drug effects. One power of this approach is the further research it enables. Once we identify circuit changes that correlate with behavior, we can tighten the focus to identify the synaptic and cellular properties underlying the circuit abnormality, expand the scope of inquiry to test the causal relationship between function and behavior, or use the immediate results as an endpoint to identify and test therapies. Our current disease foci included Rett syndrome, and schizophrenia and, through collaboration with others in the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.uphs.upenn.edu/cnb/" target="_blank"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Center for Neurobiology of Disease</span></a> in the department of Psychiatry, depression, autism, epilepsy and drug addiction. We are interested in applicants with neuroscience experience and a strong interest in electrophysiology or functional imaging.&nbsp; Postdoctoral fellows would focus on one or more of the above disease areas as a window into understanding how neuronal circuit function underlies cognition and behavior. Initial position would be for two years.

<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial;">Postdoctoral Research Associate Positions Available<br/>at the Salk Institute, California<br/>December 2007<br/>Two postdoctoral positions are available at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies.<br/>One position is to study how stem cells differentiate into neurons by developing<br/>new technologies to investigate the process on the molecular level. This project is<br/>supported by the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM,<br/><a href="http://www.cirm.ca.gov/">www.cirm.ca.gov</a>). The other position is to study the molecular mechanism of<br/>synaptic vesicle exocytosis, supported by private foundations. The positions will<br/>be available for 12 months with the possible extension of up to 5 years. The stipend<br/>is commensurate with experience, based on levels mandated by NIH ($36,996-<br/>51,036). Candidate should have a recent Ph.D. within two years. A strong<br/>background in cell biology or molecular biology is required. Training in<br/>neurobiology and experience with stem cells are highly desirable. For more<br/>information about the Institute, please visit <a href="http://www.salk.edu/">www.salk.edu</a>.
