JOIN US!
Why join the lab
We are a diverse group of scientists passionate about the brain and new technology. In our lab, we welcome equally motivated people irrespective of their race, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economical background or any form of personal expression.
We aim to answer fundamental questions in neuroscience; that requires us to employ cutting edge experimental and computational methods and, in many cases, invent new ones. Our work is multi-disciplinary so we welcome people with different backgrounds and multidisciplinary skillsets. Through our careers we have been fortunate to work with people from different cultural backgrounds and nationalities and learnt that this diversity is a major strength in any scientific endeavor. We encourage everyone to apply, especially those from underrepresented minorities.
We are committed to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment in the lab where people can not only learn and advance their careers but also enjoy working together. Our goal is to help each lab member to develop as a scientist, fulfill their potential and find the best path for their future careers. We believe that the best way to achieve this is to create an open and collaborative atmosphere where all of us can share our opinions and learn from each other.
POSTDOCS
We are seeking motivated postdoctoral candidates with interest in experimental or computational systems neuroscience. Applicants with background in neuroscience, engineering, computer science, physics, biology, psychology or other related fields are welcomed. Pure computational/theoretical or pure experimental projects, as well as hybrid ones are possible, depending on your interest and skills. Potential candidates should send a CV, a brief statement describing previous work and interest in our research and contact information for 1-3 references.
GRADUATE STUDENTS
If you are interested in our lab, you should apply through any of the internal Cornell Graduate programs. The main ones are the Graduate program in Neurobiology & Behavior and the Biomedical Engineering program.
VISITING STUDENTS
We welcome visiting undergraduate, master or graduate students from anywhere in the world. Currently, we are partnering opportunities with International Programs from Portugal, Spain, Hungary and China and are open to establish collaborations with new partners from around the globe! Interested applicants should contact us elaborating on the purpose, duration and requirements of the stay as well as research interests.
