The Neuroscience Program in the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences (BBS) at The University of Texas at Dallas seeks to fill two (2) new tenure-track faculty positions in Neuroscience with innovative investigators whose research interests address basic and/or applied issues of nervous system plasticity.

The University seeks outstanding scientists with substantive postdoctoral training in their research area, ready to continue or develop their own independent extramurally funded research program. These individuals will enhance and contribute to the program’s multidisciplinary core investigating systems and cellular level plasticity in learning and memory, in sensory systems, in aging, and in recovery or augmentation of function. See http://www.utdallas.edu/bbs for more information.

Faculty teach in the undergraduate (Neuroscience B.S.) and graduate (Cognition and Neuroscience Ph.D.) programs that have attracted students with top academic ratings for more than a decade and complement other BBS programs’ strengths in imaging, modeling, human electrophysiology, and cognitive sciences. Successful applicants will have new laboratories fitted to their needs, along with competitive startup packages and salaries.
