This research centers on the behavioral pharmacology of nicotine in humans. Other studies examine sex differences in nicotine effects and interactions between nicotine and other drugs. Collaboration with other faculty conducting similar research with non-human animals is possible. Applicants also interested in clinical research may become involved in smoking cessation studies. We are especially interested at present in applicants with an experimental background interested in human laboratory clinical pharmacology and behavioral pharmacology research.
Positions are available immediately, or when mutually convenient.
Post-doctoral human research fellowships are available in a stimulating and productive environment with excellent clinical and research resources. Opioids, cocaine, anxiolytics, caffeine, nicotine.
