Postdoc : neural circuitry underlying orientation selectivity in early visual cortex

Postdoc : neural circuitry underlying orientation selectivity in early visual cortex, David Lyon's lab, UC Irvine

A postdoctoral position is now available in David Lyon’s lab at UC Irvine to study neural circuitry underlying orientation selectivity in early visual cortex. The lab combines intrinsic signal optical imaging, reversible inactivation, single unit neurophysiology, and state of the art neuroanatomical tracing using genetically modified rabies viruses.

Experience with whole-cell or extracellular recording, intrinsic signal optical imaging, neuroanatomy, or viral technology is a plus. Programming skills and experience studying the visual system is also helpful.

Applicants must hold a PhD, and should send their CV, brief research statement, and the names of 2-3 references to: dclyon@uci.edu

Salary and rank will be commensurate with experience. Start date is flexible.
