We seek to hire one highly motivated postdoctoral scientist to investigate the role of atypical ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) in synaptic plasticity and brain function. Our lab recently unveiled that GluN1/GluN3 receptors form a novel type of signaling receptors – excitatory glycine receptors (eGlyRs) – that are widespread in the brain and control neuronal excitability and emotional states.
The candidate should have a solid expertise in patch-clamp electrophysiology and show strong interest in cellular neuroscience with a focus on neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity.
Candidates should send a CV and a brief statement of research experience to Pierre Paoletti.
