Rowland Institute at Harvard Position Description We are seeking an intellectually curious and highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join the Shi Lab at the Rowland Institute at Harvard.

Our research focuses onuncovering the molecular mechanisms that drive brain aging and neurodegenerative diseases. We specialize in decoding glycans—complex carbohydrates that decorate our cells and permeate our brain’s extracellular environment. Despite their fundamental biological roles, glycans remain one of the most understudied components of neurobiology. We aim to change that using interdisciplinary approaches that combine advanced microscopy , viral vectors, protein engineering, mouse models, and multi-omics analyses.

We welcome applications from postdoctoral candidates with backgrounds in neurobiology, glycobiology, immunology, or related fields. Applicants will benefit...
