The Greenberg lab at Harvard Medical School examines how neuronal activity shapes the maturation and plasticity of the nervous system. Sensory experience shapes the development of neural circuits during early-life windows of heightened plasticity, known as critical periods. While the key factors that drive critical period opening have been extensively characterized, the specific cues that restrain developmental plasticity as animals mature are less clear. For this project, we will characterize a new molecular pathway discovered in our laboratory by which circulating glucocorticoids act on glial cells in the brain to close critical periods of plasticity. We will further examine how early-life stress, which elevates glucocorticoid levels and increases susceptibility to many neuropsychiatric diseases, alters the timing of developmental plasticity to disrupt cognition, memory, and behavior. Collectively, this project will help us better understand the fundamental mechanisms gating...

The Oyler-Yaniv and Lahav labs in Harvard Medical School’s Department of Systems Biology are looking for an intellectually engaged and highly motivated research assistant to support work on host-virus interactions and DNA damage responses. Both the Oyler-Yaniv and Lahav labs use quantitative, single-cell approaches to understand how cells make “decisions” that balance protection of the organism with avoidance of unnecessary damage. The Oyler-Yaniv lab focuses on host–virus interactions and the mechanisms that enable effective immune responses while limiting bystander tissue injury, while the Lahav lab studies how cells respond to DNA damage in ways that prevent cancer development without inappropriately eliminating cells with minor damage. A successful candidate will directly help to push these efforts by performing experiments with oversight from the labs’ PIs. Experiments will include, but are not limited to, cell culture and sterile technique, basic molecular biology, functional...
