UPDATE 2017-05-29: Position still open.
We are seeking a talented and enthusiastic researcher with expertise in cellular electrophysiology to advance investigations on the functions and mechanisms of neurotrophic signaling networks in the adult nervous system. The research entails functional assessment of neuronal circuits in the brains of mutant mice lacking different neurotrophic factor receptors in specific subpopulations of neurons.
Candidates will be accepted at the postdoctoral level with a PhD awarded preferably within the last 5 years. Strong and documented expertise in electrophysiological methods as applied to studies of the rodent central nervous system, such as electrophysiological recordings from brain slices, is a requirement for consideration. Experience on calcium imaging would be an advantage.
The successful candidate is expected to be sufficiently independent to set up electrophysiological methods at our laboratory, including supervision of purchase, installation and maintenance of the necessary equipment.
Applications, including CV, list of publications and statement of future interests should be sent to Prof. Carlos Ibanez 
. Applicants should arrange to have at least two confidential letters of reference sent independently by referees to this email address.
Funding is available for an initial period of 3 to 4 years, starting any time during 2017.
