Postdoctoral Researcher
2 months ago
A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Marc Slutzky at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, in the Department of Neurology.
We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to join our research team on an exciting new project investigating functional brain mapping for neurosurgery.
This project aims to understand the effects of electrocortical stimulation (ECS) on cortical neurons and networks.
ECS has been used for decades as a way to identify eloquent areas of the cortex to avoid resecting during brain surgeries, yet its mechanisms are still not fully understood.
This position and project will involve collaborations with the Miri and Contractor labs at Northwestern, as well as with Johns Hopkins University, Indiana University, and the University of Iowa.
Responsibilities- Performing two-photon calcium imaging experiments with simultaneous electrocortical stimulation (ECS) to understand ECS' effects on different cortical layers.
- Using designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADDs) and transgenic animals to examine ECS' effects on different cortical cell types.
- Investigating the effects of different ECS parameters on its neuronal effects.
- Analyzing data, synthesizing results, and publishing papers.
- PhD in neuroscience, neurobiology, physiology, biomedical engineering, or a related field.
- Experience working with awake laboratory animals is strongly preferred.
- At least some experience with 2-photon calcium imaging.
- Experience with DREADDs is preferred but not essential.
- Some electrophysiology experience/background.
- Computational neuroscience skills/modelling skills are somewhat preferred.
