Subject: [AUDITORY] Post-Doc Positions in Auditory Neurophysiology From: "Apostolides, Pierre" <piaposto@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 5 Nov 2019 14:16:21 +0000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--_000_994c1f401ef04933b8d19dfaede9effdmedumichedu_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable The Apostolides Lab (www.apostolideslab.org) at the University of Michigan = (Ann Arbor) has multiple openings for highly motivated postdoctoral fellows= to understand the synaptic and cellular bases of auditory perception. Our primary techniques are patch-clamp electrophysiology and 2-photon imagi= ng in brain slices and in behaving mice. Multiple projects are now up and r= unning, generously funded by grants from the Whitehall Foundation and Heari= ng Health Foundation. Key questions we want to answer: -How do neural circuits extract meaningful information from noisy or ambigu= ous sound streams? -How do long-range feedback loops in the central auditory system control pe= rception? -To what extent do neuromodulators control specific cell-types in central a= uditory circuits? -What are the mechanisms governing synaptic plasticity in hearing disorders? The Apostolides Lab is the newest member of the Kresge Hearing Research Ins= titute (KHRI), University of Michigan Medical School. KHRI and the neurosci= ence community at the U-M provide a highly supportive and diverse research = environment, with excellent career development opportunities for postdoctor= al fellows. Located less than an hour from the Canadian border, Ann Arbor is consistent= ly rated one of the best places to live in the USA due to affordability, a = vibrant arts and culture scene, and easy access to outdoor adventure. To Apply: Please send a brief statement of career goals, C.V. and contact i= nfo of three references to Pierre Apostolides, Ph.D. (piaposto@xxxxxxxx= u). ********************************************************** Electronic Mail is not secure, may not be read every day, and should not be= used for urgent or sensitive issues=20 --_000_994c1f401ef04933b8d19dfaede9effdmedumichedu_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html> <head> <meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-= 1"> <style type=3D"text/css" style=3D"display:none;"><!-- P {margin-top:0;margi= n-bottom:0;} --></style> </head> <body dir=3D"ltr"> <div id=3D"divtagdefaultwrapper" style=3D"font-size:12pt;color:#000000;font= -family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;" dir=3D"ltr"> <p></p> <div>The Apostolides Lab (www.apostolideslab.org) at the University of Mich= igan (Ann Arbor) has multiple openings for highly motivated postdoctoral fe= llows to understand the synaptic and cellular bases of auditory perception. <br> <br> Our primary techniques are patch-clamp electrophysiology and 2-photon imagi= ng in brain slices and in behaving mice.
