Postdoctoral Scientist - Neurobiology - Dr Greg Jefferis - LMB 2680
MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology
Cambridge, United Kingdom
A post-doctoral position is available in comparative connectomics of Drosophila. We will investigate the circuit basis of behaviour in drosophilids through comparative connectomics with a focus on olfactory to descending circuits. The project will combine analysis of multiple connectome datasets with experimental work.
The ideal candidate will have a PhD in a relevant subject (preferably neurobiology) or due to complete PhD within 6 months, and doctoral/post-doctoral experience in:
* Working with EM resolution data (including neuronal proofreading and annotation)
* Analysis of connectome data including comparative connectomics
* Drosophila neural circuits analysis
It would be particularly beneficial if the candidate had experience with the architecture of olfactory/descending to motor circuits.
This is a three-year training and development position suitable for you if you have recently completed your doctoral studies, or you are looking to move into a new research discipline and/or need to further develop your research skills. Working with our world class scientists you will be working in an Institute renowned for its excellent scientific facilities and high-quality research.
