Our laboratory conducts research on the development of synapses in the central and peripheral nervous systems. We use multidisciplinary approaches including genetic manipulations, molecular biology, complex biochemistry and advanced microscopy to understand mechanisms that orchestrate synaptic remodeling and neuronal organization. We are looking for a highly motivated individual to join our group of young and ambitious scientists. The responsibilities of the successful candidate will include conducting biochemical and molecular experiments in vitro and in vivo- using conditional knock-out mice as the primary model. We offer a very friendly work environment, as well as extensive training.\

Qualifications:

Excellent interpersonal and communication skills

Strong motivation to work

Neatness in work habits, attention to detail, and good organizational skills

Ability to communicate fluently in English

General experience in laboratory work

Specific experience in either of the following areas will be considered a plus:

- molecular cloning
- cell culture
- protein biochemistry
- immunocytochemistry
- experimentation on mice in vivo and ex vivo
