14 set - Rovereto
Altro
You will be working in a multicultural and multidisciplinary group, where junior and senior scientists collaborate across experimental neuroscience, functional neuroimaging, and computational analysis to understand the brain as an integrated network.
The Functional Neuroimaging Laboratory, coordinated by Prof. Alessandro Gozzi, investigates how the brain works as an integrated network in health and disease. The research combines causal neural manipulations in rodents with fMRI, functional ultrasound imaging, multimodal recordings, optical imaging, and cutting-edge neurocomputational approaches. This project examines how basal forebrain circuits control large-scale brain activity and functional network organisation in awake mice.
Within the research team, your main responsibilities will be:
Design and perform experiments combining cell-type-specific manipulations with brain imaging in awake mice; analyse imaging datasets to quantify changes in cortical activity, brain-wide dynamics, and functional connectivity.
Integrate experimental, imaging, and computational approaches; collaborate with and help train junior laboratory members; and prepare manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed journals.
ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS
A PhD in Neuroscience, Biology, Bioengineering, or a related discipline
Documented experience in experimental neuroscience and rodent experiments
Ability to analyse and interpret complex biological datasets
Good command of spoken and written English, together with strong organisational skills, reliability, and a problem-solving attitude
ADDITIONAL SKILLS
Experience with in vivo brain imaging and/or awake-mouse experiments
Experience with circuit manipulations, viral/vector-based approaches, and/or large-scale neural datasets
Knowledge of MATLAB, Python, R, or related analysis tools
Ability to work autonomously and collaboratively in a highly interdisciplinary environment
Scientific ambition, analytical reasoning skills, and a growth mindset
COMPENSATION PACKAGE
A yearly gross salary ranging between 30,000 and 32,000 Euro which may include a premio option depending on your role and contract
Private health care coverage depending on your role and contract
Candidates from abroad or Italian citizens who have carried scientific research activity permanently abroad and meet specific requirements, may be entitled to a deduction from taxable income of up to 90% from 6 to 13 years.
The successful candidate will join an international and multidisciplinary research environment at IIT in Rovereto, with access to advanced experimental platforms for mouse brain imaging, circuit-level manipulations, and computational analysis of brain-wide activity.
