About this position
The researcher will carry out electrophysiological experiments on brain slices, combined with anatomical reconstructions, stereotaxic viral injections and taste behaviour tests in mice. They will contribute to the study of the neural mechanisms involved in the processing of sensory information.
The researcher will be involved in a project funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR), aimed at understanding the role of the insular cortex in the processing of sensory information.
They will carry out experiments in electrophysiology, stereotactic surgery, histology and behavioural science, as well as data analysis, in collaboration with team members.
The successful candidate will lead their project independently, under the supervision of Mario Carta.
Established on 1 January 2011, the Interdisciplinary Institute of Neurosciences (IINS) is a joint research unit affiliated with the CNRS and the University of Bordeaux. With a staff of 170 people divided into 12 teams, the IINS brings together multidisciplinary expertise to study the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in brain activity. The Institute develops innovative methods in imaging, chemistry, physiology and computing.
As part of Bordeaux Neurocampus, the IINS is one of the key players in the neuroscience community in Aquitaine.
