Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Systems Neuroscience at KU
2 weeks ago
We are seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic postdoctoral researcher for a project focused on studying the generation and functions of theta oscillations in spatial navigation using systems neuroscience and population-level approaches.
The successful applicant will join a diverse, interdisciplinary team of neuroscientists and data analysts and will be part of a thriving international neuroscience environment at KU.
The applicant will play a major role in all aspects of the project, including designing and performing experiments, developing technical advances, performing data analysis, and presenting the results.
Responsibilities- Conduct independent research of high international quality, including publications and other research outputs.
- Perform the project described above.
- Collaborate with lab members and other project participants.
- Assist with student supervision.
Our lab was founded in 2022 with the goal of understanding the neuronal mechanisms involved in memory and cognition and how imbalances in the circuits can lead to pathological conditions.
In particular, we study spatial memory and theta oscillations in behaving rats and how the distributed populations of neurons across the distributed brain circuits central to memory coordinate their dynamics to generate complex cognitive functions in awake rodents.
We are using state-of-the-art methods for measuring and manipulating neuronal activity at large-scale and high specificity, together with advanced data analysis.
This includes using Neuropixels and other high-density silicon probes, optogenetics, thermal and other perturbation techniques, dimensionality reduction, and other advanced population-analysis methods.
Requirements- You have a Ph.D. in Neuroscience or other related sciences.
- You are experienced in electrophysiology.
- You have an active interest in the brain's memory mechanisms.
- Experience with data analysis of single cells.
- Proficient communication skills and ability to work in teams.
- Excellent English skills, written and spoken.
Denmark is home to multiple funding bodies offering attractive grants and fellowships.
The successful candidate will be provided mentorship and support to apply for their own funding.
KU offers a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, including a pension scheme and generous parental leave policies.
The university has an international staff mobility program to help accommodate international researchers with practical matters before arrival, such as with residence permit, housing, and childcare/school, as well as during the stay with salary, tax, pension, insurance, banking as well as getting accustomed with language and culture.
Researchers recruited from abroad are offered a special researcher tax scheme with a lower tax rate.
