[visionlist] 2 Postdoctoral Positions at Yale

[Jess Cardin]

Two postdoctoral positions are available in the lab of Dr. Jess Cardin  
in the department of Neurobiology at the Yale School of Medicine in  
New Haven CT.

Current projects are focused on local network dynamics in rodent  
primary visual cortex and the roles of specific subpopulations of  
inhibitory and excitatory neurons in visual processing.  The lab uses  
intra- and extracellular recordings in vivo in combination with  
optogenetics, as well as chronic recordings and optical techniques in  
awake behaving animals.  One postdoctoral project will focus on  
optogenetics and electrophysiology in head-posted animals and the  
second project will focus on recordings in freely moving animals  
performing visual tasks.
	
The ideal postdoctoral candidate for either position would have a  
strong background in neuroscience and will have completed a PhD prior  
to starting.  Experience with behavioral tasks, electrophysiology, or  
optical techniques is preferred, but not required.  Start dates are  
flexible.  The Yale neuroscience community supports substantial  
collaborative research efforts and offers a wide range of resources,  
as well as excellent training and career development opportunities.
	
To apply, please send a CV and a brief statement of research interests  
to jess.cardin at yale.edu.
