Reporting to Dr Abhishek Banerjee Vacancy reference 175113 Additional information This vacancy is available from January 2025 or as soon as thereafter. The interview dates will be in the last week of October/early November. Committed to equality and valuing diversity The University of Oxford is a member of the Athena SWAN Charter and holds an institutional Bronze Athena SWAN award. The Department of Pharmacology holds a departmental silver Athena award in recognition of its efforts to introduce organisational and cultural practices that promote gender equality and create a better working environment for both men and women. The Role: Applications are invited for an experienced Postdoctoral Research Associate to join the Adaptive Decisions Lab (Principal Investigator: Dr Abhishek Banerjee) to carry out a project investigating adaptive neural circuits underlying distinct forms of behavioural flexibility. The postholder will be responsible for working on a research project funded by the Wellcome Trust to investigate fronto-sensory feedback microcircuits in the brain and their relevance to behavioural flexibility. The project will involve training mice on cognitive tasks and manipulating and imaging neural activity to reveal mechanisms underlying flexible cognition. Comparable experiments in animal models of neurological disorders and human cognitive experiments combining EEG in the lab will further enhance these findings, and the applicant will have a chance to collaborate on these projects. …

Postdoctoral Research Associate in Neural Circuits and Behaviour
based near: Pharmacology
type: Vacancy
application opening date: 2024-08-30T15:00:00+01:00
further particulars: 175113 AB PDRA WT job description
organization part: Department of Pharmacology
salary: Standard Grade 7: £36,024 - £44,263
comment: Applications are invited for an experienced Postdoctoral Research Associate to join the Adaptive Decisions Lab (Principal Investigator: Dr Abhishek Banerjee) to carry out a project investigating adaptive neural circuits underlying distinct forms of behavioural flexibility. The postholder will be responsible for working on a research project funded by the Wellcome Trust to investigate fronto-sensory feedback microcircuits in the brain and their relevance to behavioural flexibility. The role will involve adapting existing and developing new scientific techniques and experimental protocols, with a particular focus on animal models (mice). You will be responsible for in vivo behavioural and electrophysiological experiments on mice; performing surgical preparation on mice, including electrode/lens implantation and optogenetic virus injections; using specialist scientific equipment in a laboratory environment, such as a 2-photon microscope. You will be expected to manage your own academic research and administrative activities, including detailed project management to coordinate multiple aspects of work to meet various deadlines. You should hold or be close to holding a relevant PhD/DPhil in Neuroscience or a related subject, together with relevant experience in neurophysiology and animal behaviour. You must possess sufficient specialist knowledge in neuroscience to work within established research programmes and the ability to manage own academic research and associated activities. Experience with in vivo neurophysiological techniques, animal behaviour, stereotaxic surgery and computational neuroscience would be an advantage. The post is offered on a fixed-term basis for three years, funded by the Wellcome Trust and is available from January 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter. Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Dr Banerjee at abhishek.banerjee@pharm.ox.ac.uk at for an informal query about the position. The closing date for applications is 12noon on Frida…
