Job Description
The laboratory of Silvia De Rubeis, PhD, at the Seaver Autism Center for Research and Treatment in the Department of Psychiatry at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York, is seeking a postdoctoral fellow with expertise in RNA biology interested in applying their skillset to neuroscience and advance the field of autism and related neurodevelopmental disorders.
Dr. De Rubeis’ laboratory aims at translating emerging genetic findings from large-scale genomic studies into functional analyses in cellular and mouse models with the goal of understanding the pathogenic underpinnings of ID and ASD. The laboratory focuses on DDX3X syndrome, a rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorder, using cellular and animal models.
Our team currently includes one instructor, two postdoctoral fellows, two PhD students, and one undergraduate student.
