Working place:The Development and Neurobiology of Neural Network (DN3) team at INCIA
The team is hiring an engineer to investigate the phenotypes and functions of microglia in a rodent model of Central Congenital Hypoventilation Syndrom (CCHS).
Missions:
Performing immunohistological analysis of microglia on brainstem tissue samples from wild-type and mutant mouse embryos (immunostainings, confocal imaging and image analysis)
Performing electrophysiological recordings of respiratory activity generated in isolated brainstem preparations + drug testing.
Performing molecular biology analysis (Western Blot, RNA extraction for RNA sequencing and qPCR)
Skills required:
Master or PhD in Neuroscience
Knowledge in neuroscience, neural network, rhythmogenesis mechanisms; animal experimentation (conceptor or operator); image analysis would be a plus.
Skills expected: Motivation, hard worker, team worker, organization skills, good communication skills, rigor, easy to work with, enthusiasm.
