As several colleagues are moving on to PhD programmes and other exciting opportunities, we are looking for junior scientists to join our Drosophila Connectomics team in the Department of Zoology at the University of Cambridge.
We welcome applications for new research assistants (requiring relevant Bachelors or Masters or 2 or more years of practical experience in neuroscience, computer science, physical sciences) and research associates (requiring relevant PhD in neurobiology/circuit neuroscience with strong background in bioinformatics OR PhD in computer science with experience in neuroscience).
Applicants will work with very large volume electron-microscopy Drosophila connectomics data as part of a £6.7M Wellcome international collaborative award with HHMI Janelia Research Campus, the MRC LMB in Cambridge and the University of Oxford. This project will produce the first synaptic-resolution connectome for a whole adult Drosophila central nervous system (brain and nerve cord).
Closing Date: 16 July 2023
