美国耶鲁大学招收神经科学博士后

The Laboratory of George Dragoi, MD PhD at Yale University is currently accepting applications for postdoctoral positions to investigate the functional organization of neuronal ensembles in hippocampal-neocortical circuits. The lab is focused on understanding the emergence, development, and organization of cellular assemblies in the hippocampus and associated brain areas underlying representation of complex spatial and temporal features of the external world. Studies are performed on freely-behaving rodents (mice and rats) using large-scale electrophysiologic recordings, optogenetics, and computational/quantitative analysis. There will be opportunities to study neuropsychiatric disease models. For more information about the lab, please visit http://medicine.yale.edu/lab/dragoi.
The ideal candidate would have a background in Neuroscience or related fields, a record of scientific productivity, good oral and written communication skills. Previous experience with single unit electrophysiology, optogenetics, immunohistochemical imaging techniques, quantitative data analysis, and computer programming are all preferred.
To apply, please send a CV, a brief statement describing your research interests and relevant background, and contact information for 2-3 reference letters to: george.dragoi@yale.edu….
