Postdoct Positions in Systems Neuroscience (M/F)

id="offer-description" class="ecl-u-type-heading-2 ecl-u-mt-none ecl-u-mb-l">Offer Description The mission of the candidate will be to develop the experimental tools to manipulate neuronal and vascular processes with optogenetics and learn electrophysiology and functional ultrasound imaging, to observe the effects of these manipulations at the whole brain scale. He/she will also contribute to develop the new research team and will work closely with the PI to validate the experimental designs, acquisition and analysis pipelines. Experimental work:. • Surgical training for combined functional ultrasound and electrophysiology experiments. • Postoperative care, handling and well-being monitoring in rats and mice. • Acquisition of multimodal data in freely behaving rodents during behavioral tasks (contextual fear conditioning, T-maze). • Design and validation of closed loop optogenetics stimulations on neural and vascular processes. • Collaborative work with team members and core facilities. Data analysis:. • Multimodal Data Analysis including behavior (Deeplabcut), electrophysiological data (sleep scoring, spike sorting) and fUSi data (image processing). • Documentation, traceability, and archiving of analyses and experiments on open-source repositories (GitLab, Git, Wiki). • Initiative and design in new analysis techniques, possibly involving neural networks. Presentation and dissemination:. • Active involvement in team tasks and events. • Literature review and bibliography (jou
