Ok, fellow scientists. We never had a very strong presence on this platform- yet, enough is enough. Science is impartial to politics. Our lab is an inclusive and open-minded organisation and will remain as such. This isn't compatible with X and its leadership any longer.
Get to know the RTG 2660 🥳youtu.be/zO2d8fcB8rk?fe…
🎉Join the RTG! We have 13 PhD positions available in our translational Research Training Group 2660 on approach and avoidance behaviour👀
Great news🥳- the Berlin-Würzburg Collaborative Research Center "Retune" is funded for another 4-year period! Thanks to all members and affiliates- the DCL is looking forward to working with you!
Great news🥳- the Berlin-Würzburg Collaborative Research Center "Retune" is funded for another 4-year period! Thanks to all members and affiliates- the DCL is looking forward to working with you!
Do you like to join the DCL as a PhD? We are hiring a new cohort of students for the doctoral school "Approach-Avoidance" uni-wuerzburg.de/grk2660/
Super proud of Nina, DCL's first PhD student, to receive the University's prize for her outstanding PhD thesis. Congratulations!🤘
In case you missed it- we recently published our low-cost and efficient lab standard of recording and analyzing heart rate in freely moving mice (bio-protocol.org/en/bpdetail?id…).
Interested in the interactions of emotions and motor control in the brainstem? The Defense Circuits Lab is seeking a Postdoc with rodent circuit neuroscience experience for a 4-year project in the framework of the Comprehensive Research Center Retune (sfb-retune.de/de/home-de/)
A few months ago @KarlDeisseroth & team achieved a huge milestone in the cardiac opto & interoception fields! I enjoyed highlighting this great work at @sigtrans_sttt with @CircuitsLab & @StefanFrantz @Uniklinikum_Wue Exciting times for 🫀/🧠 research! nature.com/articles/s4139…
Excited about our joint lab retreat with the Letzkus Lab next week! Let's see what happens if you throw together a bunch of cortex and brainstem people!
📢 CEN is hiring an early career researcher for 20 months at @CircuitsLab @Uni_WUE The project studies cerebellar neural circuits during emotional states in mouse models. #Neuroscience 🧠🐁 #SpreadTheWord #JoinUs @MSCActions Apply by the 30th July 👉cen-itn.net/job-offers/
Yesterday we had the honor to welcome Prof. Valery Grinevich & Dr. Eduard Maier from @zi_mannheim at our Dinner Meeting. They gave an exciting talk on "Operating Principles of the Brain Oxytocin System" & "Behavioral & Neural Correlates of Play-Associated Habituation". 🐁
Think animal research is essential in biology/medicine? Then say so! Following a massive citizens initiative, European Parliament is about to discuss a complete ban. This is real. Please support our pledge: braincouncil.eu/pledge-for-sci…
Check out our new website design defense-circuits-lab.com featuring a hearty brain and project updates! And while you are there- we are hiring, please spread the word! Apply now for a postdoc, a data scientist or asisstant position available from July onwards.
