Joining the Lab

Postdoctoral Research Opportunities

We are an energetic and well-funded team with modern lab space located in sunny Los Angeles/Westwood. We seek to expand our group with the addition of highly motivated individuals with recent Ph.D. and/or M.D. degrees in Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry, Neurobiology or Developmental Biology. Studying molecular mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases in Drosophila is an exciting new research area with many opportunities. Close interactions with other labs at UCLA and Caltech science community make the environment collegial and stimulating.
