PhD Position in Neuroscience at University of Groningen University of Groningen in Netherlands

PhD position in Neuroscience at the University of Groningen (Groningen, Netherlands) focused on understanding how patterns of neural activity give rise to behavior. The project combines miniaturized calcium imaging , RFID tracking , multi-camera recordings, deep-learning-based behavioral analysis, computational analysis of neural population activity, stereotaxic surgery, pharmacological manipulations, and histology. You will study freely behaving mice across environments ranging from standardize...
