Offer Description

Portuguese Public tender reference: IT057-23-12677.

The successful candidate will study how the mammalian synapse morphology and function change during the ageing process. The project will capitalize on models of defective exocytosis and endocytosis to explore if selective processes, like synaptic vesicle recycling and synaptic vesicle filling, get altered with increasing age. A multi-disciplinary approach combining genetics, cell biology, physiology and live imaging will be used concurrently. Considering the aims of the project, preference will be given to candidates with previous experience in neuronal cell biology, and if feasible (electro)physiology. Duties: independent planning and performing experimental work, co-managing the project together with the PI, maintenance of experimental records, supervision of coworkers, dissemination of results.

Gross monthly wage:  3.294,81 euros, corresponding to level 53 and 54 of the single remuneration table

Duration: three years, renewable for periods of one year up to a maximum of six years.
