We are seeking a highly motivated Master/PhD student to join our team working on the development and function of muscle spindles
in wildtype and mutant mice. The project will be a continuation of previous studies (Zhang et al., 2014 Formation of cholinergic synapse-like specializations at developing murine muscle spindles. Developmental Biology 393: 227-235; Zhang et al., 2015
Differential Regulation of AChR Clustering in the Polar and Equatorial Region of Murine Muscle Spindles. European Journal of
Neuroscience, 41: 69-78; Kröger, 2018 Proprioception 2.0: novel functions for muscle spindles. Current Opinion in Neurology, 31: 592-598) and will involve confocal microscopy, electrophysiology, transgenic mouse strains, molecular biology and pharmacology.
The salary is 65% TVL
