Two post-doctoral positions are available in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences and Asher Center for Depressive Disorders to study the molecular and cellular signaling cascades in the brain regulating stress-related behaviors and identifying biological markers for stress reactivity and resilience, respectively. Dr. Radulovic’ lab focuses on the function of neuronal signal transduction and its role in behavioral models of fear, anxiety and depression.

Dr. Redei’s lab is focusing on the genetics and neurobiology of the hormonal and behavioral stress response. We combine molecular, pharmacological, genetic and genomic approaches to identify the common and specific pathways underlying stress-induced behavioral phenotypes.

Candidates should have a Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D and a strong background in molecular and cell biology to complement a multidisciplinary team. Please contact Dr. Jelena Radulovic (j-radulovic@northwestern.edu) or Dr. Eva Redei (e-redei@northwestern.edu) for further information.
