*PostDoc Position in Non-Clinical Epilepsy Research in the Biomicrotechnology lab of Prof. Ulrich Egert* We are currently offering a PostDoc position (2 years) in the Laboratory for Biomicrotechnology (http://www.bcf.uni-freiburg.de/people/details/egert) at the University of Freiburg. The project investigates mechanisms underlying mesiotemporal lobe epilepsy from the perspective of the dysfunction of interaction between subnetworks in the hippocampal formation (Froriep et al. 2012, Epilepsia). We aim to use targeted stimulation to reduce the circuit's susceptibility for seizures. For this project, we are searching for a neurophysiologist to implement a new paradigm for stimulation in a mouse model of epilepsy. It is essential that you have a background in neuroscience, ideally in experimental neurophysiology in vivo as well as a PhD degree. You should further be competent in data analysis and have an affinity for the network perspective. The project is part of the Cluster of Excellence "BrainLinks-BrainTools'' (www.brainlinks.uni-freiburg.de), together with the Bernstein Center Freiburg (www.bcf.uni-freiburg.de) and will combine neurophysiology, computational neuroscience and neurotechnology. *Please apply using our online form at https://yoda.bcf.uni-freiburg.de/* Further details on: www.bcf.uni-freiburg.de/jobs Contact: Dr. Birgit Ahrens Teaching & Training Coordinator Bernstein Center Freiburg Hansastr. 9a 79104 Freiburg, Germany birgit.ahrens@bcf.uni-freiburg.de
