Fixed-term for 3.75 years | Part-time with 65% | Salary according to TV-L E13 | Institute of Physiology I (Neurophysiology)
We are UKM. We have a clear social mission and, with our focus on healthcare, research, and teaching, we bear a unique responsibility.
To meet our high standards every day, we are looking forward to your scientific expertise in the Institute of Physiology I (Neurophysiology). Here, we investigate primary cortico-thalamic network states in the rodent brain in vivo using multimodal imaging, combining 2- and 3-photon microscopy, fiber-optic-based calcium recordings, and fMRI to relate locally regulated and dysregulated cortical activity to brain-wide network dynamics. The Subproject B07 of the Collaborative Research Center (SFB/Transregio) is an initiative focused on the modulation of coupled neuronal and glial network attractors via metabolic intervention. The project pursues a bold, systems-level approach to decipher how metabolic states (e.g., fasting) influence the dynamic relationship between neurons and astrocytes and their subsequent effects on psychiatric phenotypes – ideally with you on board!
