[vslist] Position for PhD student

[Christiaan Levelt]

At the Netherlands Ophthalmic Research Institute in Amsterdam (The 
Netherlands) a position (4 year) for a Ph.D. student is available in the 
group of Dr. Christiaan Levelt. We study molecular mechanisms regulating 
structural plasticity in the visual system using a combination of modern 
transgenic techniques, in vivo electrophysiology and
imaging. The current project aims at elucidating the role of a novel 
signaling cascade in neurite outgrowth, synapse formation and synaptic 
plasticity. Initially, primary neuronal cultures will be used, later 
transgenic mouse models. If you're a motivated student interested in 
multidisciplinary neurobiological research you're encouraged to apply for 
this position.
