Postdoctoral positions are available in the laboratory of Dr. Christophe Ribelayga, Ph.D. in the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Science at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. Research in the lab is focused on circadian rhythms and neuronal plasticity in the retina and directed at elucidating the retinal cell types and mechanisms critical for circadian organization of retinal function. A combination of tools, including biochemistry, molecular biology, mouse genetics, and physiology are employed. Research in the lab is supported by NIH/NEI grants.



Candidates should have a Ph.D. in Neuroscience or relevant field, and have a working understanding of biological rhythms and/or retinal anatomy/neurophysiology. A minimum commitment for 2-3 years is desired. The ideal starting date would be immediately, although this is flexible. Salary is commensurate with experience (NIH scale) and fringe benefits are included.



Excellent training and interaction with other vision scientists within the department and on campus are available.
