Job Description
Research Associate at the Centre for Developmental Neurobiology
Job id: 087206
Salary: £43,205 - £50,585 per annum, including London Weighting Allowance.
Business unit: IoPPN
Department: Developmental Neurobiology.
Location: Guy's Campus
Category: Research
Applications are invited for 2 postdoctoral researcher positions funded by the Wellcome Trust.
The successful applicant will pursue a research project as an integral member of a group working on neural circuits underlying flexible cognitive behaviour in mice. The project will aim to understanding how brain-wide neural circuits lead to flexible cognitive behaviours. The techniques employed may include chronic in-vivo 2-photon and 3-photon calcium imaging of excitatory and inhibitory cell classes, targeted holographic optogenetic manipulations, extracellular neuropixel recordings, viral vector based functional circuit mapping, and quantitative mouse behaviour.
The successful applicant will benefit from the collaborative culture of the Centre for Developmental Neurobiology at King’s College London and will have the opportunity to develop collaborations with groups studying animal models of brain disorders.
Candidates must have a strong research track record. Experience with in-vivo imaging, rodent behaviour and analysis of complex datasets will be highly valued.
The selection process will be a panel interview.
For an informal discussion to find out more about the role please contact Dr Adil Khan khan.adil@kcl.ac.uk.
Both posts will be offered on full-time, fixed term contracts for 2 years.
