Postdoctoral fellows

A few postdoctoral fellowship positions are sometimes available to study neuroscience and molecular biology. Projects mainly focus on development of base technology on nucleic acid medicine and its application to neurological disorders. Priority will be given to candidates of high motivation with wide experience in drug development, neuroscience, molecular biology and/or cell biology who have the capacity to work well with others.

Submit your application including a cover letter and CV to Prof. Takanori Yokota by e-mail.
