**General Summary/Purpose:**
The Research Technologist will work in a laboratory where the goal is to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying etiopathophysiologies of a wide range of psychiatric disorders, such as intellectual disability, schizophrenia, depression, and age-related cognitive impairments. In particular, we investigate how genetic, environmental factors such as adolescent cannabis use and psychosocial stress, and aging affect stress-related biological signaling mechanisms, leading to impairment of brain development and function relevant to psychiatric disorders. Our research will also aim to identify new therapeutic targets and biological markers for early intervention of these devastating conditions.
After entry-level training under the general supervision of a faculty investigator, this position is responsible for supporting postdoctoral researchers to conduct experiments, independently performing routine tests in a pre-clinical research...
