Postdoctoral Researcher (gn*)

The position focuses on "Sex-specific influence of neuropeptide systems on top-down control of fear behaviour in mice". Within the projects we use state-of-the-art techniques (e. g. ex vivo electrophysiology combinded with optogenetics and/or transgene mouse models, animal behaviour combined with in vivo chemogenetics) to investigate the influence of neuropeptidergic systems on fear- and anxiety-related neuronal circuits and behaviour. The position includes mandatory teaching of medical students in Physiology.
