PhD Position in Basics in deep brain stimulation (DBS), University of Lübeck, Germany
May 26, 2009PhD Position in Basics in deep brain stimulation (DBS), University of Lübeck, Germany
Description : The Graduate School for Computing in Medicine and Life Sciences (http://www.gradschool.uni-luebeck.de/) at the University of Lübeck invites applications for a 3-year PhD scholarship. Application deadline: June 30, 2009. Project description: Data of our in vitro studies provide initial evidence that HFS not only requires GABAA-receptors but also intact GABAergic nerve terminals to achieve an inhibitory effect. These results also indicate that HFS has a specific effect on GABAergic neuronal terminals resulting in an enhancement of extracellular GABA. Therefore, we developed an in vivo model that allows for simultaneous and collocated micro dialysis and HFS in the caudate nucleus of alert and active rats, which are stimulated by electrical pulses of 124 Hz, to analyse neurotransmitters under HFS. Requirements: Candidates are expected to have a master’s degree (or its equivalent) in computer science, mathematics or engineering. Prior experiences in scientific publishing (during the university study or industry employment) are of advantage. Please prepare all the necessary documents and submit your application online: http://www.gradschool.uni-luebeck.de/?q=node/20. For further information, send email to: management@gradschool.uni-luebeck.de or visit our website at http://www.gradschool.uni-luebeck.de/.
