We are seeking for a motivated postdoctoral researcher to establish voltage sensitive dye imaging of neuronal activity at University of Oldenburg, Germany. The candidate will collaborate with research groups in the Research Center Neurosensory Science. These groups study neural network dynamics in leech ganglia and auditory processing mechanisms in the central nervous system of birds and mammals.
Since duties will include both experimental work and data analysis, candidates should have computer programming experience and a background in at least one of the fields:
- Imaging of neuronal activity
- Electrophysiology
- Advanced data analysis (preferably imaging data)
Initially, the position is offered for a period of two years, starting October 2011 at the earliest time. It is planned to extend the period, provided additional funding becomes available. Reviewing of applications will start on August 15th 2011 until the position is filled.
Please send your applications (including letter of motivation, CV, publication list, relevant certificates and contact information of referees) to
