Full Job Description
Job ID: 122731
Postdoc - statistical learning in auditory cortico-subcortical loops using electrophysiology and behaviour
Position: Post-doctoral Position
Deadline: 31 May 2025
Employment Start Date: 1 November 2025
Contract Length: 20-24 months
City: Cambridge
Country: UK
Institution: University of Cambridge
Department: Physiology, development and neuroscience
Description:
Postdoc position to study statistical learning in auditory cortico-subcortical loops using electrophysiology and behaviour
Interested in how brains make sense of the sensory world? We are inviting applications for a curious and motivated Postdoctoral Scientist (Research Associate) to join the de Hoz lab at the Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience at the University of Cambridge. The de Hoz lab investigates systems neuroscience questions, specifically the role of cortico-subcortical loops in statistical learning. We focus on the auditory system and perform awake/asleep electrophysiology recordings (Neuropixels) and behaviour in mice, while assessing their mental state. We are a small, supportive, and dynamic group made of a diversity of people united by a passion for science and the brain.
The lab is now transitioning to the University of Cambridge, where this post will be held. We are looking for a person to perform the experiments and help setup the lab at PDN. This vibrant and interactive department spans systems neuroscience and plasticity questions, and is imbedded in the wider Cambridge neuroscience environment.
The lab asks questions such as:
- How are noisy sensory inputs recognized and represented in the brain?
- What is the role of corticofugal projections in setting expectations and interpreting the sensory input?
- How does the auditory system integrate information over time?
- How does representation change with mental state (aroused, asleep, groggy)?
We are looking for somebody with experience in systems neuroscience, including Neuropixels recordings and its analysis. Ideally, this person would also have experience with behavior and/or optogenetics. Mainly we are looking for smart, motivated individuals with a passion for science.
Please write to me at livia.dehoz@pdn.cam.ac.uk for informal enquiries, as well as for formal applications. Applications should include your CV and a letter of interest.
