Position Overview
**Job Description**
**Details of Research Project** :
How can neuroscience help us design and optimize treatments for devastating disorders of learning and memory? Our lab directly addresses this challenge by leveraging our experimental platform to understand, test, and optimize therapeutic interventions for cognitive disorders. This project focuses on fornix deep brain stimulation (DBS-f)—a promising treatment for Alzheimer’s disease currently in Phase III clinical trials. The mechanism of this therapy is not known. We will combine DBS-f with our large-scale recording platform to provide a mechanistic, circuit-level explanation for its effects, with the long-term goal of optimizing its clinical application.
**Technical Duties** : (include any protocols)
You will be a core driver of our lab’s scientific mission, leveraging our custom-built research platform to answer fundamental questions about how the brain transforms experience into memory. Beyond ...
