Titulaire d’un Master 2 de Neurosciences, psychologie cognitive ou neuropsychologie Autonomie, rigueur et sens du travail en équipe sont des qualités requises. Maitrise du français et de l’anglais, expérience en imagerie ou en EEG, et en analyses statistiques souhaitées. Appétence et aptitudes singulières pour la recherche scientifique, et intérêt particulier pour l’étude du sommeil.
The student will use several cellular models as well as in vivo approaches in the mouse (in utero electroporation techniques, knock-in and knock-out mouse models).
Le CEntre de Recherche sur la Cognition et l'Apprentissage à Poitiers propose l'étude des coordinations ½il-main lors de mouvements discrets et continus dans le cadre d'une thèse
We are searching for a motivated PhD candidate for conducting a PhD using multiphoton voltage sensitive optical recordings in the context of pattern separation to unveil inhibitory circuits functions in vivo.
The project lies at the intersection between neuroscience, comparative ethology and large data sets analysis. It will be perfectly fitted for an outstanding and highly motivated student (f/m) curious about neuroscience, data science and primate societies. Basic knowledge in Matlab, Python, or a similar language would be a big plus. Some experience with in vivo neurophysiology or with functional magnetic imaging would be interesting.
The candidate should have a solid background in cell biology, biochemistry, or a related field and a keen interest in neurobiology/neurodegenerative diseases. Academic achievements as evidenced by class ranking, fellowships, and awards are sought after. Hands-on experience in in vitro cell biology and fluorescent microscopy are desirable, but not required. Candidates are expected to work in a dynamic and collegial environment that requires strong organizational and communication skills.
The candidate should have a background in synthetic chemistry or pharmaceutical chemistry as well as notions of cellular biology and biochemistry. Fluency in programming with Matlab or equivalent is a plus. Additional training in cellular and molecular biology as well as electrophysiology will be provided through the i-Bio training program. Specific training in molecular modelling and virtual screening tools (Discovery Studio; Dassault Systèmes BIOVIA) will be provided through an active collaboration of F. Acher with Dassault Systèmes.
