Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Translational Neuroscience and Neuromodulation – University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine

August 07, 2026
The Jiang Laboratory, led by Dr. Jing Jiang (https://jingjiang.lab.uiowa.edu/), at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join our growing research team. This is a two-year appointment with the possibility of extension based on performance and funding availability. Our research aims to uncover the causal brain circuits underlying emotion, cognition, and psychiatric disorders and translate these discoveries into personalized neuromodulation therapies. We leverage a unique combination of invasive and noninvasive brain stimulation techniques, advanced neuroimaging, intracranial electrophysiology, computational modeling, and network neuroscience to study the human brain.
Requirements
  • PhD and/or MD degree in neuroscience, engineering, psychology, or a related field
  • Experience with electrophysiological and/or neuroimaging data analyses, e.g., in iEEG, fMRI, and/or brain networks
  • Proficiency in Python and/or MATLAB
  • A strong record of peer-reviewed scientific publications
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a multidisciplinary research environment
To apply, please email (1) a cover letter describing your research interests and (2) your CV to Dr. Jing Jiang (). Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled. Start date is flexible depending on candidate availability.
