Research Assistant | Laboratory of Neurophysiology and Behavior

4 months ago


New York, United States The Rockefeller University Full time
Organization Overview

The Laboratory of Neurophysiology and Behavior takes advantage of the relatively simple nervous system of the fruit fly Drosophila to examine how flexibility is engineered into the nervous system to give rise to adaptive behaviors,at the level of both individuals and species. We examine how learning rapidly shapes neural pathways to allow each member of a species to respond appropriately to their unique experience of the world. We also consider how neural circuits are adapted over longer evolutionary time scales to give rise to species-specific behaviors. Our lab employs a multidisciplinary approach,from biochemistry to behavior,with the goal of revealing the neural basis for flexible behavior at high resolution.
Overview

The Ruta lab takes advantage of the relatively simple nervous system of the fruit fly Drosophila to examine how flexibility is engineered into the nervous system to give rise to adaptive behaviors, at the level of both individuals and species. We examine how learning rapidly shapes neural pathways to allow each member of a species to respond appropriately to their unique experience of the world. We also consider how neural circuits are adapted over longer evolutionary time scales to give rise to species- specific behaviors. Our lab uses a wide array of innovative techniques, including genetics, functional imaging, and quantitative behavior, with the goal of revealing the explicit neural basis for flexible behaviors at the level of synapses and circuits.

The perfect candidate demonstrates a proactive mindset and a strong desire to learn, advance in their professional journey, and receive guidance. They will have access to hands-on training and mentorship, along with opportunities for professional development, including the possibility of contributing to research publications.
