WELCOME TO THE MOLAS LAB:
The goal of our research is to uncover the neural circuits and mechanisms that drive behavioral response to novel stimuli and adaptive learning through experience. To this aim, we use multidisciplinary approaches that integrate state-of-the-art techniques such as circuit mapping, activity-dependent neuronal ensemble tagging, singe cell gene expression analysis, multi-region/multi-animal imaging, optogenetics, chemogenetics and machine learning tools for animal behavior annotation.
HIGHLIGHTS
Postdoctoral Position: The Molas lab is looking for a postdoctoral researcher to investigate the neural circuits underlying social novelty responses using multi-region recordings in freely moving animals. Interested candidates please contact susanna.molas@colorado.edu with your CV and letter of motivation.
PhD Position FALL 2026: The Molas lab will be recruiting a PhD student this Fall 2026 through the Behavioral Neuroscience Program at CU Boulder. Interested candidates please contact susanna.molas@colorado.edu with your CV and letter of motivation. Candidates with Computational Skills are highly encouraged to apply.
