Preference will be given to candidates with research experience in ex vivo Fast-Scan Cyclic Voltammetry (FSCV) or fiber photometry. Our laboratory integrates electrophysiology, neurochemical monitoring, and behavioral assays to study how misused substances, such as alcohol and THC, impact neuromodulatory systems to influence circuit function. We foster a highly collaborative environment and provide outstanding training opportunities aimed at helping you build the skills needed for your next career step. Additionally, we offer internal and external funding opportunities for individuals interested in developing grant-writing skills and pursuing independent research careers. If interested in industry, there are opportunities to attend lectures taught by industry experts. We also support career development through opportunities to attend conferences.
