Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the laboratory of Dr. David Krizaj at the Department of Ophthalmology and John A. Moran Eye Center, University of Utah School of Medicine. The project will focus on calcium regulation in photoreceptors, combining TIRF and confocal techniques with molecular biological approaches. Ideally, the successful candidate will have a Ph.D. degree in neurobiology; electrophysiological and/or calcium imaging experience is a big plus. The candidate must have demonstrated the ability to work independently, present at national meetings and publish in good journals. Motivation, initiative and creativity are highly desirable.

The position is funded by the NIH and private foundations. Salary will be commensurate with the relevant experience. The candidate will have excellent opportunities to interact with researchers in the Neuroscience community at the University of Utah.

Interested applicants should send application materials to Dr. David Krizaj (david.krizaj@hsc.utah.edu). The application materials should include: a brief summary of research background, interests and a current CV with contact information of at least three references.
