OPEN POSITIONS
Senior Staff Associate – Electrophysiologist (NEW)
The Losonczy and Polleux laboratories at the Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute of Columbia University have an opening for a postdoctoral fellow. The postdoctoral fellow will carry out in vitro physiological and molecular characterization of pyramidal cells and interneurons in the hippocampus following spatial navigation and learning using post hoc acute slice electrophysiological (Patch-clamp) recording, molecular (Patch-seq), and imaging approaches.
Student Researcher (Undergrad)
The Losonczy Lab at the Zuckerman Institute is recruiting undergraduate students to assist with our research program on the functional and transcriptomic organization of hippocampal memory circuits. Students can expect to assist in animal behavior training with the potential to gain experience in optical physiology (fiber photometry, two-photon calcium imaging), circuit manipulations (optogenetics, chemogenetics, pharmacology), and other cutting-edge tools for systems neuroscience.
