POSTED: February 15, 2008
A postdoctoral research position is available in the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior at SUNY- Stony Brook. This position is in the laboratory of Dr. Lorne Mendell. The major focus of the laboratory is electrophysiology of the injured spinal cord, specifically the functional properties of neurons and circuits after injury, as well as strategies to enhance recovery that include training and the use of factors such as neurotrophins. The laboratory is funded by NIH and also participates in an international research consortium supported by the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to collaborate actively with the other laboratories in this
Consortium(http://www.christopherreeve.org/site/c.geIMLPOpGjF/b.1048735/k.2971/
