Description
The Bernstein Center for Neurotechnology Goettingen (BCNT) invitesapplications for
Two PostDoctoral or Ph.D. student positions
in the project “Magnetic stimulation in cell culture and brain”. In thisGerman-Israeli cooperation between the Max-Planck-Institute for Dynamicsand Self-Organization, the Weizmann Institute (Rehovot, Israel) and theMedical School of Göttingen University, we will combine numericalsimulations, experimental work on neuronal cultures and clinical trialsto achieve a detailed understanding of the cellular effects of magneticstimulation (TMS) and direct current stimulation (tDCS). With thisbackground we hope to achieve a rational design of therapeutic treatmentparadigms for these brain stimulations.
In this context two foci should be covered by the successful applicants:
1. numerical simulations of neurons on various levels of complexity. Inaddition numerical simulations of electromagnetic fields in space withanisotropic impedance will be performed.
2. experiments with magnetic stimulation in both, clinical trials and invivo / in vitro model systems. The aim is to test and transfer newstimulation paradigms.
The successful applicants will get the opportunity to develop skills isboth areas.
The successful applicant is interested in tackling problems in aninterdisciplinary group and has a degree in neuroscience, physics,applied mathematics or engeneering and experience with numerical simulations.
Goettingen is a university town with a long tradition and a vividstudent atmosphere – and it is a center of neuroscience research inGermany. Besides the recently established BCNT and several institutes ofthe Goettingen University the neuroscience community also includes threeMax-Planck-Institutes, the Bernstein Center for ComputationalNeuroscience, the European Neuroscience Institute, the Center forMolecular Physiology of the Brain and the German Primate Center.Goettingen will host the Third International Conference on TranscranialMagnetic and Direct Current Stimulation.
The initial appointment will be for two years, with the possibility ofextension. Salary for the PhD positions is according to the German TVÖD(“Entgeltgruppe” 13 or 14, depending on qualifications) with benefits.We are committed to employing more disabled individuals and especiallyencourage them to apply. We aim to increase the number of women in thoseareas where they are underrepresented and urge them to apply.
