[visionlist] Postdoc in Vision at Berkeley

[Frank Werblin]

A postdoc position in Vision Neuroscience is available in the lab of Prof. Frank Werblin at UC Berkeley for the electrophysiological investigation of signal processing in the mouse retina  We employ anatomical, optical, genetic and electrophysiological techniques to investigate the functional properties of retinal neurons and their network interactions. We are also using a variety of genetic techniques to implement the use of artificial rhodopsins to restore vision to the blind. Some of the work is described at www.mcb.berkeley.edu/labs/werblin.

We are an interdisciplinary team working on diverse aspects of retinal processing. We seek highly motivated Ph.D.'s with a sound background in electrophysiology and some experience with confocal or two-photon microscopy.

Funding of the position is available for at least two years. Berkeley is a strong center for vision research. Contact  werblin at berkeley.edu
