This is an ERC-funded position for the project "DeCode - Dendrites and memory: role of dendritic spikes in information coding by hippocampal CA3 pyramidal neurons". The lab studies the principles of synaptic integration, dendritic processing, input-output operations and single-cell and population activity patterns in hippocampal neurons, with the goal to understand how cellular and circuit mechanisms allow the hippocampal network to perform various computations during navigation and learning. We are happy to consider researchers and students who have experience in electrophysiology and/or fluorescent microscopy techniques, or engineering/programming skills.
