One post-doctoral position is available for a max. duration of 4 years (preferred start: first half 2019) , funded by a Dutch NWO VIDI grant to Lisa Genzel. The researcher will carry out large scale ensemble electrophysiology to research the neural basis of memory and memory consolidation.

Extensive experience (e.g. at the PhD level) with ensemble recording (tetrode recording, silicon probes) and behavioral approaches would be considered a plus.

The researchers will be embedded in the Memory Dynamics Lab (co-leaders, FP Battaglia and L Genzel), a rapidly growing group active in the exploration of mechanisms of memory, and will have access to large datasets from behavioral neurophysiology experiments (large scale ensemble ) from the group, currently further funded by a Marie Sklodowska Curie “M-GATE” Doctoral Network coordinated by FP Battaglia, a NWO VIDI grant to L Genzel and other public and private grants, and counting eight core members active in experimental and computational work (to be increase to 12 in 2019).

To apply, please send a CV, a letter of motivation (2 page max. length) and the name and contact info for two possible referees to l.genzel@donders.ru.nl
Applications reaching us before February, 14th 2019 will be given full consideration.
