A postdoctoral position is available in the Hashimoto-Torii laboratory at the Center for Neuroscience Research, Children’s National Medical Center located in Washington, DC.

We look for a researcher who is highly motivated to work on Gene and Environment Interaction during fetal brain development using systems biology and bioinformatics tools. If interested, please send CV and at least 2 references along with a cover letter in which your career and research goals should be described to khtorii@cnmc.org (English only) or kazue.hashimoto-torii@yale.edu (Japanese is available).

The goal of Hashimoto-Torii laboratory is to understand how adverse prenatal environment interacts with genetic predisposition, thereby increasing the psychiatric disease susceptibility after birth. With a focus on the cerebral cortex, we tackle this question by a combination of wet (w. mouse model) and dry (w. human specimens) analyses.
