Postdoctoral, lecturer and associate professor positions are available to investigate molecular mechanisms underlying the formation, maintenance and regulation of synapses and neural circuits, in identifying targets to develop therapeutic strategies for treating neuropsychiatric diseases including schizophrenia, autism and epilepsy.

Postdoc candidates should have a recent Ph.D. degree and strong background in medicine or life sciences.

For the Tenure-track lecturer and associate professor, outstanding candidates with a PhD and a strong record of research accomplishments are sought. The successful candidate will also be expected to teach at the undergraduate and post-graduate level in neurobiology. We offer a highly interactive and well-equipped work environment, and rich opportunities in collaboration with any clinical departments/ affiliated hospitals.

Successful candidates are high-motivated and self-driven individuals and will have the opportunity to develop and carry out exciting projects using multidisciplinary approaches including electrophysiology, optogenetics, molecular biology, and behavioural analysis. Immediate projects focus on pathophysiological mechanisms of neural circuit development and regulation. We provide competitive salary and benefits, which will be commensurate with experiences. Interested candidates should send C.V., description of research experience and interests and contact information of three references to Dr. XiaoMing Li at lixm@zju.edu.cn.
