We are growing the team and actively looking for highly motivated postdocs, graduate students, interns, or technicians to join our scientific adventure. We endeavor to build a collaborative, supportive, and inclusive environment, in which everyone enjoys doing research, shares their passion for science with others, and makes rigorous and inspiring discoveries.

Janelia provides a unique research and training environment, where small labs collaborate extensively to tackle big challenges in biological research. Thus, everyone interacts with and learns from many biologists, tool builders, engineers, and computational scientists outside their lab. Our research is strongly supported by the unbeatable Janelia Support Teams, who provide customized technologies and services to accelerate discovery and scale operations, far beyond traditional core facilities in other institutions. We have research opportunities for all stages and value everyone’s long-term career success: for example, 41% of Janelia postdocs have become faculty or group leaders. Janelia also features top-notch campus amenities, including housing, childcare, gym, and more.

Prospective Postdocs
We are interested in postdocs with expertise in vasculature biology, kidney physiology, or computational biological imaging. Please send your application to Jiefu (lij6 [at] janelia.hhmi.org) with a summary of your current work and future research interest, a detailed CV, and names/contacts of three references. [ Janelia Postdoc Resources ]
We also welcome joint postdocs with other Janelia labs [ 4DCP and Janelia ].

Prospective Graduate Students
Janelia has joint PhD programs [ link ] with John Hopkins. Please contact Jiefu (lij6 [at] janelia.hhmi.org) if you are interested in doing PhD at Janelia.

Prospective Undergraduate/Postbac Interns and Technicians
Besides making discoveries, we strongly believe that comprehensive scientific training is critical for everyone at every career stage. Please send your application to Jiefu (lij6 [at] janelia.hhmi.org) with a summary of your previous research experience, a detailed CV, a transcript, and names/contacts of references.

Prospective Visiting Scientists
Janelia has a visiting scientist program [ link ] to bring graduate students, postdocs, or independent investigators to our campus and work together to solve interdisciplinary problems. If you are enthusiastic about cell-surface biology and have a proposal for collaboration, please contact Jiefu (lij6 [at] janelia.hhmi.org).
