The Division of Comparative Medicine at Massachusetts Institute of Technology is recruiting a behaviorist. We have a very large breeding colony of marmosets (300), including a transgenic marmoset program aimed at developing new models for neuropsychiatric disease, rhesus macaques (80), and a slowly growing breeding colony of tree shrews (< 10), as well as pigs, rabbits and rodents. Our ideal candidate would be someone who would be enthusiastic not only to lead our behavioral management program, but also to develop their own independent or collaborative research portfolio over time.
