Two NIH funded postdoctoral research positions are available within the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, of the University of Maryland School of Medicine. The positions are for two separate teams that work in collaboration in a large open space dedicated to inner ear research and hold shared lab meetings and journal clubs on a weekly basis. The laboratories are equipped with state of the art molecular and imaging equipment and their projects range from human genetics, to developmental and functional biology using mice, zebrafish and Drosophila.
