Postdoctoral Opening
We are seeking postdoctoral fellows who are interested in initiating a new
research program to develop a neuron-electronic interface and to probe spatiotemporal
dynamics of hippocampal neural networks. Specifically, we are looking for
candidates who have a Ph.D. degree in neurobiology, biophysics, or electrical
engineering and who are willing to work in a highly interdisciplinary and
collaborative environment.
We are also interested in outstanding postdoctoral fellows in nanoscience.
The candidates should send his/her CV and three letters of recommendation to the laboratory administrator (creson at chemistry.harvard.edu).
Our work was published in Nature Nanotechnology and featured as a cover article.
Our collaborative work with the groups of Aviv Regev and Nir Hacohen was published in Cell and was featured as a cover article.
