Connectionists: Postdoctoral Position at the Bernstein Center Freiburg, University of Freiburg, Germany

[Birgit Ahrens]

*PostDoc Position in Non-Clinical Epilepsy Research in the 
Biomicrotechnology lab of Prof. Ulrich Egert*

We are currently offering a PostDoc position (2 years) in the Laboratory 
for Biomicrotechnology 
(http://www.bcf.uni-freiburg.de/people/details/egert) at the University 
of Freiburg.

The project investigates mechanisms underlying mesiotemporal lobe 
epilepsy from the perspective of the dysfunction of interaction between 
subnetworks in the hippocampal formation (Froriep et al. 2012, 
Epilepsia). We aim to use targeted stimulation to reduce the circuit's 
susceptibility for seizures.

For this project, we are searching for a neurophysiologist to implement 
a new paradigm for stimulation in a mouse model of epilepsy. It is 
essential that you have a background in neuroscience, ideally in 
experimental neurophysiology in vivo as well as a PhD degree. You should 
further be competent in data analysis and have an affinity for the 
network perspective.

The project is part of the Cluster of Excellence 
"BrainLinks-BrainTools'' (www.brainlinks.uni-freiburg.de), together with 
the Bernstein Center Freiburg (www.bcf.uni-freiburg.de) and will combine 
neurophysiology, computational neuroscience and neurotechnology.
