Post-doc Research Fellow
Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH)
Charlestown, MA
We are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in optical microscopy within Optics @ Martinos, a consortium of research labs at the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Harvard Medical School. Our research involves development and application of novel optical instrumentation to explore multiple facets of physiology and its pathological alterations. Working with Dr. Abbas Yaseen, the fellow will investigate how changes in cerebral energy metabolism, neurovascular signaling, and neuroimmune interactions contribute to neurodegeneration. The postdoctoral fellow will develop and apply novel optical microscopy technologies to explore these pathophysiological hallmarks at the cellular level in preclinical rodent models of Alzheimer’s disease. The fellow will also determine how prospective preventative and therapeutic methods influence cerebral metabolism and neuroimmunity.
The Martinos Center is home to state-of-the-art imaging facilities and technological expertise in neuroimaging. The center houses over 200 faculty and postdoc members, conducting diverse neuroimaging research with great potential for collaborations and career development.
Qualifications
Prospective candidates must be highly motivated with strong technical skills and experience with biomedical optics. A Ph.D. in engineering, physics, neuroscience, or related field, is required. A background in optical imaging techniques such as multiphoton microscopy or optical coherence tomography and/or neuroscience is a considerable asset, as is experience with animal experiments. Strong analytical skills, independent motivation, and creativity are essential for this project.
Candidates should be enthusiastic about working in a fast-paced, interdisciplinary environment. The successful candidate will be able to work both independently and collaboratively. Experience with programming (primarily MATLAB and C/C++), willingness to work with animal models, and strong written and oral English communication skills are required.
