[Maureen A McCall]

Postdoctoral Research Associate - Retinal Electrophysiology
 
One and potentially two postdoctoral fellow/research associate
positions are available in the laboratories of Dr. Maureen McCall and
Dr. Ron Gregg at the University of Louisville (Ophthalmology &
Biochemistry/Molecular Biology Departments). 
 
We are seeking someone with electrophysiological skills primarily in
whole cell voltage clamp. Skills in other electrophysiological
techniques will be considered. Individuals without electrophysiology
skills will not be considered.
The successful candidate will work in a collaborative research
environment focused on the function of the retina in normal and disease
states. A balance of good collaboratative skills and independence are
required. 
 
Prior knowledge of retinal circuitry and visual function are a plus;
they are NOT a requirement. We seek motivated individuals who have a
Ph.D. with experience in control engineering
and / or signal processing. If there is interest the successful
candidate can participate/and will be taught molecular biological
techniques used to manipulate the mouse genome. 
 
We offer a salary that is commensurate with experience and with NIH
recommendations. 
 
The University of Louisville is located in Louisville, Kentucky, which
is a metropolitan location with a lively music and arts scene, great
restaurants and affordable housing. On a postdoc salary it is possible
to buy your own home, live in condos in restored warehouses within the
city. Alternatively, the countryside with horse farms is within an easy
commute. There is good biking, hiking and boating nearby. 
 
Interested candidates should submit electronically and use postdoc
position in the subject line: 
a cover letter, CV, a statement of research skills and interests and
contact details for three referees to:
