The Institute of Anatomy and Molecular Neurobiology at the University of Münster is offering a position in molecular and cellular neurosciences at the earliest opportunity, initially limited to 3 years.

Part-time with 65%
Salary according to TV-L E13

Our research focuses on molecular mechanisms of synapse formation and neurotransmission (https://www.medizin.uni-muenster.de/en/anatomie1/the-institute.html). We seek an interested and highly motivated graduate student to investigate the role of the synaptic organizer molecules neurexins and their defects in mutant mouse models of neurodevelopmental disorders. The project is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft and based on state-of-the-art methods to analyze synaptic function and structure in vitro and in vivo.

Ideal candidates will hold an above-average Master’s degree in a related subject and have already shown a strong motivation for basic science. Prior experimental experience with the nervous system, cell culture, electrophysiology, or microscopic techniques is an asset.
