Research Focus:
Our laboratory investigates how interactions between the gut microbiome and the brain influence behavior, neural plasticity, stress susceptibility, and disease vulnerability. Current NIH-funded projects examine mechanisms by which microbial and host-derived signals influence neural circuits and cellular processes, including astrocyte and oligodendrocyte biology, neuroimmune signaling, epigenetic regulation, and behavioral adaptations. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work across multiple experimental platforms and develop an independent research direction within the broader goals of the NIH-funded program Required Qualifications A Ph.D. in Neuroscience, Molecular Biology, or Microbiology in Public Health, Clinical Psychology, Health Psychology, or a related discipline Ph.D./Ed.D.
