Type of contract CDD
Location Paris, France
Statut
Key Words genetic; interneuron; optogenetic
Details of the offer
Project: Our team uses multiscale experimental approaches, combining genetics, two-photon calcium imaging in awake mice, behaviour, electrophysiology and optogenetics to understand i) how cholinergic transmission affects specific cortical subnetworks ii) the cellular, molecular and synaptic logic governing the modulation of inhibitory circuits by cholinergic inputs and iii) how inhibitory interneuron computations are affected by human genetic variants of nicotinic receptors linked to psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders.
Profile of the candidate: The position will be financed for two years with possibilities for extension. We are looking for highly motivated candidates with a PhD in Neuroscience and experience in in vivo two-photon calcium imaging and/or advanced computational skills (knowledge of coding in MATLAB and Python are necessary).
