Postdoctoral Opportunities

Postdoc opportunity in the Citri lab: “The Claustrum: Physiology and function”

A postdoctoral position is available in the field of physiology and behavior, under the supervision of Prof. Ami Citri.

The Citri lab is combining a powerful toolkit of behavioral, physiological, molecular and anatomical approaches to decipher the physiology and function of the claustrum. The successful candidate will join the claustrum team in the lab and develop an ambitious project aimed at identifying the principles governing cortical modulation by the claustrum and its functional impact on impulse control. Impulse control will be studied in natural reward settings as well as in the context of opioid abuse.

Requirements:

Candidates must hold a Ph.D. in neuroscience or a related discipline and have a deep interest in physiology and behavior. Published experience in electrophysiology, rodent behavior and imaging is an advantage. Candidates must be proficient in English.

Possible start of employment: Flexible.
