We have an open post-doc position in the Genzel lab funded by an ERC Consolidator grant. It is 3 years full-time (adaptable if necessary) and we are looking for someone with expertise in molecular methods (e.g. immunohistochemistry, viral approaches such as DREADD and optogenetics, engram tagging techniques) to join our big, team-science projects. Specifically we aim to elucidate how the cortex acquires semantic memories in multi-trial learning paradigms such as our Object Space Task and the HexMaze. Start is flexible (ASAP but later start is also possible) and you would join a multi-disciplinary team tackling complex behavior with state-of-the-art methods in a cross-species approach. For further information contact Lisa Genzel l.genzel@donders.ru.nl. Applications are welcome anytime (open running application), we will close the call 15th of January 2025. Please send a CV (max 4 pages with publications) and a motivation letter (max 2 pages).
