PhD Position in CNS intravital imaging of hemorrhagic stroke models 100%
We seek a qualified and highly motivated individual aiming to pursue a PhD thesis involving in vivo imaging of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation and the brain barriers in the context of hemorrhagic stroke within the group of Dr. Steven Proulx at the Theodor Kocher Institute at the University of Bern in Switzerland.
Tasks
This SNSF-supported project involves development of new imaging techniques to evaluate CNS fluid flow and the role of the brain barriers in mouse models of subarachnoid hemorrhage. An ideal candidate should be motivated to learn and develop new in vivo microscopic techniques, including near-infrared or two-photon imaging, as well as be interested in establishing and characterizing surgical mouse models of disease.
Requirements
The applicant should have a master's degree in neuroscience, biomedical engineering or a related field and have interest in the fields of neuroimmunology and neuroanatomy. Previous in vivo experience with rodent models is desired. The candidate must have strong written and oral communication skills in English, while working knowledge of German is a plus.
We offer
Please send your CV (including the names of at least two references) with a motivation letter to the Theodor Kocher Institute (Write an email) For further information, please contact us by e-mail. Please send your application before November 15, 2024.
