12 Oct '13

Post-doc position in small animal MRI A post-doctoral position in small animal MRI is available in the Department for Health Science and Technology at the ETH Zurich, Switzerland. The position is located in the Neural Control of Movement Laboratory and projects will focus on structural and functional connectivity measurements in rat and mouse models of neurological or psychiatric diseases. Connectivity will be determined based on DTI and fMRI measurements of the resting state or during sensory stimulation. All experiments will be performed in close collaboration with the Animal Imaging Centre lead by Prof. M. Rudin that is equipped with the latest, cutting-edge MRI technology. The Neural Control of Movement Laboratory provides an inspiring interdisciplinary research environment and has tight collaborations with leading scientists in molecular neuroscience and human MRI. All projects have a highly translational character with the goal to apply the same MRI methodology in animal models and human volunteers/patients. The successful candidate has a strong background in medical imaging in small animal models as well as in standard analysis methods. Experience with behavioural testing in rat/mice, knowledge of how to induced experimental brain lesions, or a good background in molecular techniques is a distinct advantage. We are looking for a young, independent researcher with a large interest in translational work and good interpersonal, and communication skills. The position is available for a period of 4 years. Please apply online at http://internet1.refline.ch/845721/2744/++publications++/1/index.html. Application deadline is the 5th of December 2013 and the project will start in spring 2014 (negotiable).

Christmas Party money collection
by Catarina Teige 11 Oct '13

11 Oct '13

Hi all, I will be coming round ynic this Monday (14.10.13) between 9 am and 10:30 am, and Tuesday (15.10.13) between 2 pm and 3 pm to collect menu choices (attached) and money for the Christmas party. Guests and partners are very welcome (one guest per person) should you wish to bring them. *Dietary Requirements* The chef at The Churchill says he can cater for any dietary requirement. We will take a preference for food choices and also write by each option the particular dietary requirement (e.g. gluten-free). Hopefully the chef will be able to make that dish with the specific dietary requirement, but if not, then I'm sure he will make a tasty alternative. If you are unable to be there at these times but would like to come to the party, it would be great if you could leave your choices with somebody else able to be there, or alternatively arrange a time to come see me in the psychology department (or arrange a time with Rich Harris who is also responsible for collecting money from ynic staff). For reference, Tuesday is the deadline for payment. Hope to see you all there! Cheers, Catta
