1 data scientist health and risk jobs found in Orangeburg

JOB DESCRIPTION: A 50% research scientist position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Shuo Chen. The Chen Lab studies the circuit and molecular mechanisms of learning and memory in healthy and disease brains. The lab also develops novel technologies to record and manipulate neuronal activities. The successful candidate will lead projects integrating in vivo electrophysiology, in vitro electrophysiology, calcium imaging, animal behavior, omics, and computational modeling to dissect how circuit- and molecular-level processes give rise to complex behaviors and memory functions. Additional opportunities exist to develop next-generation technologies for minimally invasive deep brain simulation. JOB DUTIES: The employee will work in a neuroscience lab environment. The employee will help design and conduct in vivo/in vitro electrophysiology and imaging experiments in animal models to probe circuit-level neural mechanisms with a focus on the hippocampus.
