Description:
A postdoctoral position is available to investigate the mechanisms and roles of
synaptic plasticity in the auditory system. Current projects focus on synaptic
signaling within the circuitry of the mammalian cochlear nucleus and other
regions of the auditory brainstem. We combine brain slice electrophysiology
(patch clamp) with a variety of optical techniques such as two-photon imaging,
CCD imaging, and UV uncaging to study transmission and plasticity at auditory
synapses.
