The Harraz laboratory in the Department of Psychiatry, University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) invites applications for a Postdoctoral Fellow position, available immediately, to study the neurobiology of addiction. The Harraz lab uses multidisciplinary approaches (pharmacology, chemoproteomics, molecular biology, genetics, microsurgery, and behavioral models) to investigate the role of proteostasis in cell signaling and its impact on cell and organism biology. Dr. Harraz's recent work has uncovered a novel high-affinity receptor for cocaine and explores the role of autophagic proteostasis in drug abuse and SARS-CoV-2 entry into cells. For more information about the lab, please visit www.theharrazlab.org
We seek Postdoctoral Fellows interested in developing and leading projects in 2 main areas:
1. Functions of BASP1 as a novel cocaine receptor.
2. The role of autophagy in substance abuse disorders.
QUALIFICATIONS : Applications are invited from dynamic, organized, and self-motivated candidates. A recent Ph.D., M.D., or M.D./Ph.D. with a strong research background in neuroscience, cell biology, biochemistry, or a related field is required. Applicants should have peer-reviewed publications that document their prior experience. Expertise in mouse work, solid surgical skills, multi-omics approaches, or iPSC models will be an asset.
SALARY: NIH scale salary for postdoctoral fellows plus fringe benefits. The initial appointment is for one year to be renewed yearly, depending on mutual satisfaction.
APPLICATION : Please send the application materials to Dr. Harraz's email: mharraz@som.umaryland.edu and ensure that your application contains the following:
• A cover letter describing your current interests and explaining how your existing skills fit the position.
