　　POSTDOCTORAL POSITIONS IN ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY - BRAIN INITIATIVE

　　CALTECH : pasadena, CA, United States

　　The Lois Lab is seeking highly motivated individuals to work on a research project funded by the NIH BRAIN initiative focused on the assembly and wiring of brain circuits. Our laboratory is interested in the mechanisms that regulate the connectivity between neurons, and the mechanisms by which brain circuits give rise to behavior. We focus on the process of neuronal integration during adult neurogenesis in the mouse olfactory bulb and in the song system of songbirds. The research combines techniques in electrophysiology, molecular biology, neuroanatomy, 2-photon imaging, and transgenesis in rodents and songbirds.

　　Description

　　A Ph.D. in neuroscience, molecular biology, biophysics, or a related field is required. Candidates should have a record of research excellence demonstrated by publication. Expertise in electrophysiological recordings is necessary. Applicants who are motivated to develop careers as independent investigators are especially encouraged to apply.

　　Benefits

　　Depending on qualifications, postdoctoral fellows will receive salaries according to NIH guidelines (starting salary is 43,000 USD or approx. 33,500 Euros). The positions are fully funded by NIH grants. It is anticipated that the postdoctoral fellows will stay in the lab for 4-5 years to complete their project.
