The Department of Neuroscience at the University of Copenhagen is seeking a highly motivated and dynamic researcher for a 2-year position to start immediately.

Job Description

We are looking for an expert in live cell imaging to study cellular models of neurodevelopmental delay and epilepsy using various microscopy techniques.

The purpose of this project is to detect consequences of disease mutation on the circuit level, which will be amenable to drug discovery. Our research group focuses on the mechanism of neurotransmitter release in chemical synapses, and the molecular basis for neurodevelopmental diseases and epilepsy.

We use an interdisciplinary approach, including human induced pluripotent stem cell (hIPSC)-derived neurons or mouse neurons, combined with microscopy, electrophysiology, and omics methods. Our team collaborates with clinicians and patient groups, promoting a collaborative and supportive spirit.

Required Skills and Qualifications
  • PhD in natural or medical science
  • Excellent scientific track record
  • Solid experience with cell culture methods
  • Experience in fluorescence microscopy
  • Enthusiastic, highly motivated, and self-starter
  • Proficient communication skills and ability to work in teams
