Neuroscience Researcher Position in Brain Circuit Mapping

1 month ago


Hillerød, Hillerød Kommune, Denmark Region Hovedstaden Full time

Company Overview

The Danish Research Centre for Magnetic Resonance (DRCMR) at Copenhagen University Hospital Hvidovre is a leading research centre for biomedical MRI in Europe. Our mission is to conduct basic and clinically applied MR research, focusing on structural, functional, and metabolic MRI of the human brain and its disorders.

We are seeking a highly motivated Neuroscience Researcher to join our team in a 3-year postdoctoral position. The successful candidate will be part of the Microstructure and Plasticity Group led by Professor Tim B. Dyrby.

Job Description

We are looking for a researcher with a strong background in neuroscience to work on brain circuit conduction velocity mapping. The project involves using MRI scanners to non-invasively map the conduction velocity of neuronal transmissions in the brain network between brain regions.

The researcher will establish translational animal models of neurodegenerative and demyelination diseases, use optogenetic techniques to ablate and stimulate specific neuronal populations, and measure and analyze the functional readout of brain stimulations using electrophysiology.

The successful candidate will also contribute to other scientific projects within the group, centered around their research topic of interest.

Required Skills and Qualifications

To be successful in this role, you should have a PhD degree in Neuroscience or a corresponding qualification within circuit or degeneration neuroscience. You should also have experience working with animals and established/used animal models.

In addition, you should have documented practical skills in animal handling, stereotaxic surgeries, and anesthesia. Experience with tissue preparation for IHC and microscopic imaging used in your scientific publications is also required.

Benefits

The salary for this position is estimated to be around 540,000-600,000 DKK per year, depending on your qualifications and experience. You will also receive a comprehensive pension scheme and benefits package.

The DRCMR has a state-of-the-art MR research infrastructure enabling translational research, which includes a pre-clinical 7T Bruker MR scanner and six whole-body MR scanners. You will be part of a dynamic and multi-disciplinary research environment with a focus on structural brain imaging.

Salary and Terms of Employment

The salary for this position is approximately 560,000 DKK per year, including a comprehensive pension scheme and benefits package.
