Description

The Lippi lab at Scripps Research seeks a Postdoctoral Associate as part of a growing team of investigators studying how post-transcriptional mechanisms instruct brain development and function. We have pioneered new conceptual and technological frameworks to interrogate these mechanisms, including inducible and reversible global microRNA loss-of-function, cell type–specific microRNA–target interaction mapping, scalable manipulation of individual regulatory elements, and single-cell, isoform-sensitive measurements of translation in vivo. We are recruiting highly motivated and talented scientists who will use these tools to discover fundamental new biology. Our research focuses on how post-transcriptional gene regulation shapes neuronal development, diversification, and function in the mammalian brain.

Application deadline: May 26, 2026
