It's time for a proper #introduction.

I'm a postdoc at the Weizmann Institute, currently working on optical GPCR based inhibition of synaptic transmission. AKA DREADDs but with light 😉. We recently accumulated our thoughts and knowledge here:

Dealing with all kinds of optogenetic methods and tool development, patch-clamp, imaging, and nasty molecular biology.

🚨 3 POSTDOC OFFERS 🏄🏽‍♀️☀️

3 fully funded POSTDOC offers (4-year contract).

Interested in doing research on the #NeuralCircuits of #SocialBehavior in #rodents? Join our lab at @cnc_uc, in beautiful Coimbra (Portugal).

If you have a background on quantitative behavior, electrophys, calcium imaging, optogenetics in behaving animals and/or data analysis and computational neuro, come to work with us!

Deadline 10th January 2023

It looks like this platform might finally become more populated, so let me (re)introduce this page.

Neurofrontiers is a bilingual blog about interesting neuroscience topics that tries to be accessible to the broader public while still maintaining scientific accuracy. It's run by a team of three people: a computational neuroscientist, a psychologist, and a graphic designer. We think that being on social media allows us to stay up-to-date with the most recent discussions in science and hope to be able to connect with like-minded individuals.
