Imaging Specialist in Neurotransmitter Release Mechanisms

3 days ago


Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Københavns Universitet (KU) Full time

The Department of Neuroscience at the University of Copenhagen invites applications for an imaging specialist to join our team. In this position, you will contribute to the study of cellular models of neurodevelopmental delay and epilepsy using live cell imaging of neuronal activity.

Our research group is interested in understanding the mechanism of neurotransmitter release in chemical synapses and the molecular basis for neurodevelopmental diseases and epilepsy. We use an interdisciplinary approach combining human induced pluripotent stem cell (hIPSC)-derived neurons or mouse neurons with microscopy, electrophysiology, and omics methods.

Your tasks will include using live cell microscopy of in vitro neuronal populations with fluorescent reporters, performing image analysis, and identifying imaging parameters that are changed by mutation. You will also work closely with our international team and collaborate with clinicians and patient groups.

Requirements include a PhD or equivalent degree in natural or medical science, solid experience with cell culture methods, experience in fluorescence microscopy, and excellent communication skills and ability to work in teams.

We offer a dynamic and international research environment with modern laboratories within the Mærsk Tower. The position is a fixed-term position limited to a period of two years. Starting date is flexible but preferably around December 1st.

The average weekly working hours are 37 hours per week. Salary, pension, and other conditions of employment are set in accordance with the Agreement between the Ministry of Taxation and AC or other relevant organisation. Currently, the monthly salary starts at approximately 5,100 EUR. Depending on qualifications, a supplement may be negotiated.
