Grade UE07: £41,064 to £48,822 per annum
CMVM/School of Neurological and Cardiovascular Sciences/Institute for Neuroscience and Cardiovascular Research
Full time: 35 hours per week
Fixed Term: 2 years
We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher to contribute to our ongoing research into neural circuits mediating cognition in rat models of neurodevelopmental disorders. The successful candidate will work in the research group of Prof Emma Wood at the University of Edinburgh on a collaborative project funded by the Simons Foundation Autism Research Initiative (SFARI).
The Opportunity:
The project will use high-density electrophysiological recording techniques to investigate the function of the head-direction system in one or more rat models of neurodevelopmental disorders, including the Fmr1-/y rat model of Fragile X Syndrome. The successful candidate will be involved in the design and execution of the in vivo neural recording experiments, and to the development and application of data analysis methods to analyse high density neuronal recording data both at single neuron and population levels.
This post is full-time (35 hours per week). The salary for this post is £41,064 to £48,822 per annum.
Your skills and attributes for success:
A PhD in Systems Neuroscience or Computational Neuroscience
High proficiency in Python programming
Expertise in relevant approaches and analytical techniques and methods including signal processing and analysis of high-density neural data.
Experience with in vivo high-density electrophysiological recording techniques in rodents.
Ability to communicate complex information clearly, orally and in writing
