Our neuroscience colleagues in various Departments and Colleges across the University of Michigan are looking for postdocs. See listings and lab contacts below.
The Leventhal Laboratory is seeking a postdoctoral fellow (NIH-funded) to study the motor circuitry of dystonia in mouse models. We will use a combination of electrophysiological, optical, behavioral, and anatomic techniques to determine how altered torsinA expression alters basal ganglia and cortical physiology.
Please send an email to Dr. Leventhal
In 2011, the University of Michigan joined in a collaborative partnership with the University of California to offer postdoctoral fellowship opportunities at the University of Michigan. In this program, the University of Michigan now offers postdoctoral research fellowships in science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM), economics, and political science, coupled with faculty mentoring, professional development, and academic networking opportunities.
The College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA) at the University of Michigan launched the LSA Collegiate Fellows program in 2016 as a major College initiative aimed at promoting an inclusive scholarly environment, recruiting and retaining exceptional early career scholars, and supporting outstanding scholars who are committed to building a diverse intellectual community.
