Postdoctoral Position in Neurobiology available to study synaptic
plasticity and its role in learning/memory and neuropsychiatric disorders.
Potential research projects include electrophysiological recording in
brain slices from knockout or normal mice to study the regulation of
synaptic plasticity such as long-term potentiation and long-term
depression, generation of new knockouts and behavioral analysis of
dopamine receptor knockouts. Expertise in one of the following areas -
electrophysiology, molecular biology or behavioral testing is required.
Laboratory is well-equipped and we have expertise in both
electrophysiology and gene targeting technology (Science 257:201-206,
1992; Nature 371:704-707, 1994). Please send CV and names of three
