The Department of Neuroscience at Tufts University School of Medicine in Boston, MA is expanding by adding two tenure-track faculty positions. Appointments will be at the Assistant Professor level. We are interested in enhancing our core strengths and research focus on epilepsy, neurodegenerative disorders, neuro-inflammation, neuron-glial interactions and human iPSC-derived cellular models. We are seeking candidates who use innovative approaches to investigate problems that cross levels of investigation from molecular and cellular to systems and/or behavioral neuroscience. Candidates using molecular, genetic, electrophysiological and/or imaging methodologies to study neurons, glia, synapses and networks in healthy and disease states are particularly encouraged to apply. We offer generous start-up packages, newly renovated laboratory space, mentorship by senior faculty, and a highly collaborative environment offering opportunities for both basic and translational research.
