Job Overview
The Grillo Lab (www.grillolabuc.com) is seeking candidates to join our vibrant team in a full-time position as a Postdoctoral Fellow. Research in the Grillo Lab focuses on the molecular understanding of how genetic, age-related, or environmental-induced mitochondrial dysfunction alters micronutrient metabolism in neurologic disease. Our research at the interface of biochemistry, metabolism, and physiology employs multiple in vitro and in vivo models to investigate the basic biochemistry and molecular mechanisms of age-progressive neurodegenerative diseases (e.g. tauopathies) and inborn errors of metabolism (e.g. branched chain amino acid deficiencies).
Candidates with a strong background in mitochondrial metabolism, biochemistry, cell biology, aging, oxidative stress, kinase signaling, or metal biology in neurodegenerative diseases are especially encouraged to apply. The postdoctoral scientist will perform laboratory experiments on an independent project under the supervision of Dr. Grillo while assisting other laboratory personnel. The position is immediately available, although timing can be flexible.

Job Overview
As one of the oldest medical schools in the country, the UC College of Medicine has a reputation for training best-in-class health care professionals and developing cutting-edge procedures and research that improves the health and clinical care of patients.
Dr. James Herman at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine Department of Pharmacology & Systems Physiology is recruiting a Postdoctoral Fellow to work on their recently funded multi-PI NIH grant. The project explores the idea that altered activity in brain stress-reward circuits drives the stress-buffering effects of pleasurable behaviors. More specifically, it identifies the neurocircuit mechanisms by which chronic engagement with a natural (food) reward protects from the adverse consequences of chronic stress on anxiety- and sociability-related behaviors. The experiments use a variety of methodological approaches, including neuroanatomical tract tracing, DREADDs, and a variety of behavioral tests. The incumbent will conduct research and analyze research data and ensure that all experiments are appropriately conducted following the policies and procedures of the University of Cincinnati. Positions are temporary appointments as a research trainee.
Dr. Herman is part of a large, highly interactive group of faculty at the University of Cincinnati who are focused on stress-related mental health research. This community provides a great training environment and has a strong history of preparing trainees for successful independent careers in science.

Doctoral Degree in Neuroscience, Physiology, or related field.
Additional Qualifications Considered
- Prior research experience and publications in the fields of stress, feeding and reward neurobiology.
- Experience with the following laboratory procedures/techniques: measurement of feeding and stress-related behaviors in small animals, small animal stereotaxic brain surgeries, use of viral vectors, immunohistochemistry, neuroanatomy, and microscopy.
