Job Description
The Jaramillo lab investigates the neural basis of expectation, attention, decision-making and learning in the context of sound-driven behaviors in mice. Projects during the postdoctoral fellowship will study these cognitive processes by monitoring and manipulating neuronal activity during adaptive behaviors with cell-type and pathway specificity using techniques such as two-photon microscopy (including mesoscope imaging), high-density electrophysiology (using Neuropixels probes), and optogenetic manipulation of neural activity.
Requirements
- Candidates must hold a PhD degree in neuroscience
- biomedical engineering
- or related field. The ideal candidate would have experience in recording neural activity and analyzing neural data
- but no previous work with a specific technique is required. The Institute of Neuroscience at the University of Oregon provides a highly collaborative and inclusive environment with a tight network of system neuroscience investigators
- and spanning research from the molecular level to human brain imaging.
