A postdoctoral fellow full-time position is available immediately in Dr. Debo Sardar’s lab at the Department of Pharmacology at Anschutz Medical Campus. We study glial cells – the non-neuronal cells in the brain. Although understudied, glial cells comprise more than half of our brains, and understanding how they contribute to brain function is a big question in the field. More specifically, our lab is focused on glial epigenetics, and are interested in the question of how glial epigenetics shape animal behaviors, with an emphasis on behaviors of smell. Using transgenic mouse models, our approaches include molecular neuroscience, cellular neuroscience and systems neuroscience, with the primary goal of understanding how glial epigenetics shape sense of smell.
