The Aydin Lab in the Department of Molecular Pathobiology at New York University College of Dentistry (New York, NY) seeks a Postdoctoral Scholar who will investigate the underlying mechanisms of intercellular communication and its relationship to human health and disease. The lab uses a combination of physiology, biochemistry, cell biology tools, and molecular and functional imaging techniques. The qualified candidate will also utilize animal models and in-vivo imaging to study the molecular bases of pathologies associated with cell-cell communication. In addition, the candidate will engage in tissue culture experiments, including maintaining cell lines, growing adherent and suspension cells, and working with cell co-culture systems. This position requires excellent communication, high-quality recordkeeping, and the ability to analyze data. The successful individual will earn opportunities to disseminate research with authorship credit. This position will also maintain general lab functions and assist with training new lab members.

In compliance with NYC’s Pay Transparency Act, the annual base salary range for this position is $62,500 to $70,000. New York University considers factors such as (but not limited to) the specific grant funding and the terms of the research grant when extending an offer.

We seek a highly motivated researcher who holds a Ph.D. in Biological Sciences or related fields. Strong laboratory and analytical skills, ability to follow protocol, effective written and oral communication, and efficient time management are essential. Experience with animal models, tissue and cellular methods, wet bench lab skills including molecular imaging, cell biology and dynamics, molecular biology, and a scientific knowledge or an interest in neurobiology and molecular mechanisms of cell-cell communication are highly desirable.
