Do you want to contribute to top quality medical research?
We invite applications for a Research Assistant position in Dr.

Francois Lallemend research group, which explores the specific neural elements and pathways underlying sensory perception and their central integration in the auditory, vestibular, and sensorimotor systems. The Lallemend lab is located in the new building Biomedicum which includes 5 departments. The position will be placed in the Department of Neuroscience, which includes several research groups working on a broad range of studies on the molecular and cellular levels, networks of neurons, and the organization of the nervous system as a whole.

Your mission
The Research Assistant fellow that joins our team will be investigating the sensorineural substrate that perceive and/or transmit the sensory inputs in the vestibular organs and to the first relay center in the brainstem, and their plasticity in various environmental conditions. The projects in the lab make use of various methods, including mouse genetic tools, single cell omics, virus tracing technology, histology, and behavioral assays to reveal the different sensory channels and associated central circuits that underlie our sense of proprioception and balance. The candidate will characterize the biological properties of newly identified molecular cell types and explore their circuit integration and function.

Your profile
We are looking for a highly motivated, driven, inquisitive, enthusiastic person interested in our area of research, and ready to explore new avenues in science. The candidate should have a collaborative approach to research, be working productively in a team and contributing to a good social environment in the laboratory. The applicant should preferably have a background in neuroscience; histology, behavioral tests, circuit analysis and surgery are appreciated.
