DETAILS OF THE OFFER

Working place: Poncer laboratory at the Institut du Fer à Moulin

The project aims to understand how FCD promotes epilepsy. Specifically, we aim to elucidate the molecular and circuit basis of cortical malformation and epileptogenesis in FCD.

By combining single-cell transcriptomics and electrophysiological studies on postoperative tissue from human CFD patients and a clinically relevant mouse model, we will functionally interrogate specific molecular pathways and cell subtypes and their contribution to circuit hyperexcitability.

The successful candidate will join a dynamic, multidisciplinary research team focused on the molecular and cellular determinants of epileptic networks, with expertise ranging from single-molecule tracking approaches to in vitro and in vivo electrophysiology.

Candidates should have a Ph.D. in neuroscience and a strong background in in vitro slice (patch clamp) electrophysiology. Excellent teamwork and communication skills in English are required.
