About the role

Eli Lilly and Company invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join the Psychiatry and Neuronal Health group, conducting in vivo pharmacology in rodents to explore reward, arousal, and stress‑related circuits pertinent to CNS drug discovery. You will perform fiber photometry, microdialysis, and behavioral pharmacology experiments, with emphasis on chronic IV self‑administration, caffeine reinstatement tests, and neural circuit mapping, while collaborating on manuscript

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
