Position description

The Neuroscience department at the University of California, Berkeley seeks applications for an Assistant/Associate Project Scientist in the Wilbrecht Lab, in the area of behavioral and systems neuroscience.

The Wilbrecht lab studies the effects of early life adversity and psychiatric risk genes on the development of learning and decision making. We also measure neural activity to determine how neural circuits support different learning phenotypes.

The Wilbrecht lab projects are highly collaborative and include teams of researchers located at UC Berkeley and other universities. Within UC Berkeley, the successful candidate will have access to multiple departments, including psychology, molecular and cell biology, integrative biology, statistics, and the Center for Computational Biology.

The position will contribute in four major ways: 1) behavioral neurobiology experiments (husbandry, training, recording, and histology, 2) data analyses and computational modeling (planning and execution), 3) writing and revising drafts of manuscripts and grants, and 4) mentoring and managing materials, supplies, and data.

Responsibilities:
designing and executing experiments
data management
protocol management
safety management
reagent management
equipment management
data analysis
manuscript preparation
presenting research and attending lab meetings
contributing to grant proposals
mentoring graduate students and postdoctoral researchers

Qualifications
Basic qualifications (required at time of application)
PhD (or equivalent international degree).

Additional qualifications (required at time of start)
At least two years of post-PhD research experience.

Preferred qualifications

PhD in neuroscience, psychology, or a related field.
Extensive experience with behavioral methods for the study of learning and decision making.
Experience generating and analyzing neural recordings using at least two modern methods.
Extensive knowledge of statistical methods and computational modeling techniques.
Research interest in the area of early life adversity and adaptive developmental plasticity.
Experience mentoring graduate and undergraduate students in laboratory settings.
Strong publication record in peer-reviewed journals.
Excellent writing and communication skills.
