3-year postdoctoral position available in Montpellier – France
Summary The IHPRF1 (Infantile, Hypotonia, with Psychomotor Retardation and Characteristic Facies 1) and CLIFAHDD (Congenital contractures of the Limbs and FAce, Hypotonia, and Developmental Delay) syndromes are two severe neurodevelopmental disorders linked to mutations in the NALCN gene. The sodium (Na+) leak channel NALCN is a crucial regulator ofcell excitability by setting up the resting […]
Post-doctoral position in Magdeburg
This offer is for a 3-year project (with possible extension) investigating the underlying mechanisms of episodic memory and its content. The project includes in-vivo electrophysiological recordings and optogenetic manipulations. This project is tightly linked to independent subprojects involving high resolution Immediate-early gene imaging, 9.4T fMRI in awake rats and 7TfMRI in humans. The position is […]

PhD position in cortical inhibitory microcircuits (Paris Brain Institute)
Summary: Our research mainly focuses on the cellular physiology of various elements of cortical microcircuits, the properties and plasticity of their synaptic connections and their contribution to the generation of various cognition-relevant network activities. Through our collaborators, we also study cortical circuit deficits in several animal model of brain disease. We use a combination multi-disciplinary […]

PHD on tasting and control of food intake in Alzheimer’s disease (université de Bourgogne – Dijon)
Summary The few studies on taste in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) observed an early gustatoryimpairment through subjective gustatory tests. These gustatory disorders could be linked to adegeneration of the gustatory cortex or to agnosia. Gustatory performances in patients with mildcognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia were lower than those in healthy controls. A positivecorrelation between […]
PhD-student in cellular neuroscience (cell biology, super-resolution & live-cell imaging)
Summary: You will be working as a PhD candidate on “the axon initial segment: a checkpoint in neuronal communication”, at the department of Functional Genomics, at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU). Communication in the brain relies on the ability of neurons to generate electrical signals. The generation of action potentials occurs at a specialized axonal compartment; […]
