5. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Krienen Lab (krienenlab.org) at the Princeton Neuroscience Institute is looking for highly motivated candidates for postdoctoral or more senior positions. The successful candidate will join a multidisciplinary group and perform cutting-edge research on the molecular, cellular, and neurobiological mechanisms of brain evolution, development and/or disorders. The lab (1) develops new tools and approaches to study cell types in non-human primate systems, (2) discovers developmental processes that lead to primate brain specializations, (3) generates multimodal, multiscale whole brain atlases using single cell sequencing approaches, and (4) applies scalable molecular analyses of disease relevant mutations to inform models of human brain function and disorder.

6. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program at Princeton University, in association with NOAA’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL), seeks a postdoctoral or more senior research scientist to conduct research on developing and using machine learned parameterizations developed from ocean-data assimilation increments. The goal is to develop parameterizations of unresolved processes that will improve ocean circulation models. A neural network has already been demonstrated to model the misfit between the ocean model and observations. The new research will involve training a new machine-learned model to represent some missing physics contained within this dataset, interpret the new model, implement it as a parameterization in a global circulation model (MOM6), and evaluate the new parameterization within a global-scale climate model.

22. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Brooks lab seeks to mechanistically determine circadian clock regulation of innate immune functions at the intestinal epithelial barrier. Forming the first line of defense, the intestinal epithelium must acquire nutrients from the diet while maintaining harmony with a vast consortium of microorganisms known collectively as the microbiota. Endemic to the epithelium are specialized epithelial and immune cell types that produce antimicrobial proteins, bolster the epithelial barrier, and coordinate immune responses. These fundamental functions of innate immunity are regulated by the time of day.
