Description
In a DFG-funded project (3 years), we offer a position either as aPostdoc or as a PhD student (BAT 2a/2) concerned with the unravelling ofexcitatory and inhibitory microcircuits in a basic module of the cortex,i.e. the cortical column. For this exciting endeavour, we use flashphotolysis of caged-glutamate in slices of rat barrel cortex incombination with whole cell-recording and subsequent 3-dimensionalquantitative reconstruction of the neurons (Schubert et al.; J.Neurosci. (2001, 21:3580-3592; 2003, 23:2961-2970; Cerebral Cortex 2006,16:223-236). In cooperation with the group of Prof. Michael Frotscher wewill start a parallel project on reeler mice, in order to investigatesensory processing in a highly disorganized cortex. Candidates must havea background in electrophysiology (patch clamping in slices) and astrong enthusiasm for neuroscience.
