Connectionists: Postdoctoral Position in Neurophysiology at NJIT / Rutgers

[Horacio G. Rotstein]

An NIH-funded postdoctoral position in Neurophysiology is available in the
Federated Department of Biological Sciences at the New Jersey Institute of
Technology (NJIT) and Rutgers University in the laboratory of Jorge
Golowasch.

The postdoctoral fellow will join a recently funded project whose goal is
to study the functional role of ionic current co-expression on the tuning
of activity of a rhythm-generating network to its inputs. The crustacean
pyloric network used in this research is ideal to address these questions
because of their well-defined temporal patterns of activity and anatomical
properties. The project has a theoretical component in collaboration with
Horacio G. Rotstein.

The successful applicant should have a PhD in Biology, Mathematics, Physics
or related areas, as well as proven experience in electrophysiology and a
genuine interest to interact with other experimentalists and theoreticians.
The chosen applicant will have the opportunity to join a young and very
dynamic department with substantial expertise in the study of neuronal
excitability, circuit function, and behavior. Funding is available for 1
year initially, with the possibility of extension. The position is
available immediately. The salary will be based on experience and is
competitive with all international standards.

NJIT and Rutgers are located in Newark, NJ, in the New York City
metropolitan area, 20 min train/subway ride from Penn Station and the World
train Center in Manhattan.

Required documents: CV, cover letter, names and emails of three references.
Please contact Jorge Golowasch (Golowasch at njit.edu) with any questions.
