One student will be supervised by Dr. Anne Petzold at the Institute for Pharmacology and Toxicology, focusing on disease aspects and single-photon calcium imaging in freely moving animals; one student will be supervised by Dr. Oliver Barnstedt () at the Institute of Biology, focusing on memory engrams and two-photon calcium imaging. Both students will work in close collaboration with associated labs at the European Neuroscience Institute in Göttingen and will have the opportunity for further collaboration within the SFB1436.
**Requirements profile**:
- You hold a Master’s degree in neuroscience or a related field
- You have experience with stereotactic surgeries or behavioural tasks in rodents

**Your benefits**:
- You have the opportunity to pursue a PhD and are supported and promoted accordingly
- You will have the opportunity to learn cutting-edge in vivo circuit neuroscience techniques to answer fundamental questions of memory processing in a supportive environment
- Our Research Funding and Graduate Academy support services help you with your personal development

- You work in a young and dynamic international team with low hierarchies and strong mutual support
