DETAILS OF THE OFFER | Working place: Center of Neuroscience of Lyon / Team "SLEEP" Missions: We are looking to hire a motivated PhD candidate in our team to work on a project investigating the crosstalk between sleep and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Qualifications: The successful candidate must have MSc in life science (Biology, Neuroscience or equivalent) with excellent marks and TOP 10-20% ranking, good English communication skills. Previous EU/France recognized certified experience with surgeries in rodents (electrodes implantation, EEG/LFP recordings). Skill to analyse data using Python is an important advantage. |
