Postdoctoral Researchers and PhD Students (m/f/d) | Functional brain imaging

The Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics conducts research that elucidates neurological processes across various organizational scales via experimental and theoretical approaches.

The Molecular Signaling Lab combines bioengineering and preclinical in vivo imaging to understand molecular signaling that underlies mammalian brain function. Joining us, you will have the opportunity to apply novel genetic tools to study molecular brain function using optical, ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging. Our interdisciplinary approach encourages researchers with different backgrounds to collaborate and develop their skills to bridge molecular, cellular and organismal levels.

Relevant work experience includes in vivo imaging (especially preclinical functional MRI and ultrasound), in vivo electrophysiology, rodent handling, behavioral experiments and surgery. Solid programing skills (e.g. Matlab, Python) are a plus. Our mission is to build a supportive and inclusive environment and we highly value scientific curiosity and motivation. Ideal candidates also have a strong track record of prior research accomplishments.

The Max Planck Society is committed to employing individuals and strives for gender equity and diversity. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and explicitly encourage members of underrepresented groups to apply.
