Connectionists: PhD / Postdoc position in Experimental/Computational Neuroscience at the Poirazi lab

[marouso_velissariou at imbb.forth.gr]

Dear all,

we are looking for a talented and enthusiastic scientist to join the  
Laboratory of Dr. Panayiota Poirazi at IMBB-FORTH as a postdoctoral  
fellow or as a PhD student.

The successful applicant will work on a multidisciplinary  
collaborative project aiming to determine the importance of cortical  
engram cells in memory formation and storage and probe the role of  
cortical memory engrams in the generation and retrieval of a  
sensory-based memory. The project as a whole combines computational  
modeling, electrophysiology, calcium imaging techniques, and molecular  
and behavioral experiments. First, the biophysical properties of  
engrams will be identified in a cortical area of interest, and their  
functional role will be unraveled in vivo. Then, computational  
modeling will be used to determine the role of engram cells during  
memory recall. This project is a collaboration between the Florey  
Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health in Melbourne, Australia  
(Prof. L. Palmer), and the University of Dublin, Ireland (Prof. T.  
Ryan).

Please, see the attached file for more details.

Best regards,
Marsa
