Singapore Nanyang Technological University Full time

Research Fellow / Senior Research Fellow (LKCMedicine)
Apply at NTU Novena Campus, Singapore - Full time
The Hwei-Ee Tan lab studies the fundamental biological basis of “gut-feelings”, how bacteria in the gut signals to the host to influence physiology and behaviour. Using mice as a mammalian model, the lab investigates how diet and microbiome factors modulate host phenotypes (e.g. food reward, anxiety behaviours, etc). Besides supporting curiosity-driven basic research on the gut-brain axis, the lab is also studying the brain-gut axis to uncover host-microbe interactions. The lab’s work is multidisciplinary, covering diverse skills from molecular biology to systems neuroscience, physiology, and behaviour. With top-tier research support from National Research Foundation Singapore, Brain & Behavior Research Foundation (NARSAD), the lab at NTU LKCMedicine is actively recruiting talented postdoctoral research fellows, research assistants, and interns, and is also open to sponsoring motivated PhD/Masters students. Prior to submitting their application, postdoctoral applicants are strongly encouraged to look up the lab’s website and email the PI with a CV/resume and a cover letter articulating their scientific ambition.
Key Responsibilities:
The postdoctoral applicant must demonstrate commitment to co-create impactful discoveries in the microbiome gut-brain neuroscience field.
Be exceptionally motivated, possess core skills for animal and lab work, and be willing to work in a team and assist with essential lab duties.
Have experience and specialized expertise in multiphoton/2-photon in vivo calcium imaging and data analysis, or in gnotobiotic studies and microbiome analysis/bioinformatics.
Key Competencies/Requirements:
Hold a doctoral (PhD) degree in neuroscience or relevant disciplines with a strong publication track record.
Lead impactful work within the lab’s research theme on microbiome gut-brain neuroscience.
Exhibit proficiency in mice/rodent handling, optogenetics and behaviours, animal surgery, and dissection.
Demonstrate experience and specialized expertise in multiphoton/2-photon in vivo calcium imaging and data analysis, or in gnotobiotic studies and microbiome analysis/bioinformatics.
Be highly motivated and conscientious, able to work independently and with a team, and willing to teach, learn, and assist with essential lab duties.
