Graduate Student and/or Post-Doctoral Fellow, Fall 2023. We are looking for a graduate student and/or postdoctoral fellow investigating the physiology and anatomy of first-order tactile neurons over the course of development. This project will use light sheet fluoresence microscopy and tissue clearing (i.e. CLARITY) in parallel with electrophysiology and assays of hand function to establish how marmoset first-order tactile neurons connect to mechanoreceptors in the hairless skin of the hand, how this changes over the life span, and how this relates to hand function. Candidates with marmoset and/or with immunofluoresence imaging and neuronal reconstruction experience are particularly encouraged to apply. Note that for graduate student applications, acceptance is ultimately decision of the Neuroscience Program at Western but candidates should feel free to make contact with us in advance (by email: andrew.pruszynski@uwo.ca). This position is fully funded.
