imaging, cutting-edge light and electron microscopy, molecular biology, and computational
modeling. We are looking for a Research Technician to support the group in these ambitious

- Support for electrophysiology experiments, including preparation of solutions and brain
- slices
- General laboratory support and organization
- Mediating interactions with our Scientific Service Units (e.g., Lab Support Facility, Imaging and
- Optics Facility, Electron Microscopy Facility, Virus Services)
- Being part of an interactive group of students, postdocs, and technicians with diverse
backgrounds
