Postdoc Position in Neuroscience at Dublin/ Ireland

"Applications are invited for postdoctoral position in a newly-established research group led by Marian Tsanov at the Institute of Neuroscience, Trinity College Dublin. The post is initially available for one year, and may be renewed subject to satisfactory performance. Applications will be considered until the position is filled.

My work focuses on the formation of episodic memory through a multi-disciplinary approach combining optogenetics, network modelling, field and single-unit recording and stimulation techniques in behaving rodents. I will investigate how the structures processing the information between striatum and hippocampus integrate motor, sensory and intrinsic signals within theta cycle and how this integration supports hippocampal memory function.

A successful candidate should have the following qualifications:
- background in systems and/or computational neuroscience
- experience in electrophysiological recordings (preferentially in behaving rodents)
- programming skills (e.g., Matlab)
- a promising publication record

To apply, please send C.V. statement of research interests, and names of 2-3 referees to tsanovm@tcd.ie.
