Applications are invited for a post-doctoral position in the laboratory of Dr William Schafer at the MRC LMB, Cambridge to work within a programme aimed at understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms of touch and pain sensation. Specifically to undertake research to investigate gene products that play important and conserved functions in the detection of aversive mechanical and thermal stimuli. Key approaches will be to record directly from touch and pain-sensing neurons of nematodes by electrophysiology and determine how these molecules affect sensory transduction.
The ideal candidate will possess a combination of skills in molecular cloning, behavioural genetics, in vivo neuroimaging and electrophysiology.
