Our lab has developed a unique experimental platform that enables real-time visualization and manipulation of cochlear cellular activity in living, hearing animals. By combining in vivo two-photon imaging, single-cell optogenetics, auditory physiology, and targeted inner ear drug and gene delivery, we investigate how sound is encoded and transformed from sensory hair cells to auditory neurons. Our research spans sensory coding, cochlear injury and repair, and the development of new approaches to study and treat hearing loss. Current projects explore how populations of hair cells encode sound, how sensory information is transformed into subtype-specific auditory nerve activity, and how drugs and therapeutic agents can be delivered to and monitored within the living inner ear. We are particularly interested in bridging advanced in vivo technologies with clinically relevant questions in hearing loss, otoprotection, and emerging inner ear therapeutics.# **Job Description****Primary Duties & Responsibilities:**Information on being a postdoc at WashU in St. Louis can be found at under the supervision of a faculty mentor including (but not limited to): * Assists with grant preparation and reporting.* Prepares and submits papers on research.* Assists in the design of research experiments.* Evaluates research findings and assists in the reporting of the results.* Conscientious discharge of their research responsibilities.* Maintains conformity with ethical standards in research.* Maintains compliance with good laboratory practice including the maintenance of adequate research records.* Engages in open and timely discussion with their mentor regarding possession or distribution of material, reagents, or records belonging to their laboratory and any proposed disclosure of findings or techniques privately or in publications.* Collegial conduct towards co-trainees, staff members and members of the research group.* Adherence to all applicable University policies, procedures and regulations.
