The Van der Heijden Lab at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at Virginia Tech in association with the Department of Neuroscience is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Associate. Led by Dr. Meike van der Heijden, the lab aims to study the development of cerebellar function in health and disease.

The lab goals are to understand why perturbations to the cerebellum can lead to movement disorders with a broad range of symptoms and phenotypes. The work is relevant to understanding the pathophysiology of movement disorders including dystonia, ataxia, and tremor.
