Postdoctoral position

Postdoctoral position available in the Neuroscience Program at UCSF.
Our recent efforts to adapt zebrafish (Danio rerio) for epilepsy research
have generated exciting new opportunities. Using electrophysiological,
behavioral and anatomical approaches we have developed novel
strategies to elicit, monitor, and study seizures in zebrafish. In
collaboration with Dr. Herwig Baier, a recently completed forward-
genetic screen has uncovered several seizure-resistant zebrafish
mutants. Gene mapping and characterization of these mutants has just
begun, and this is an ideal time to become involved in these projects.

UCSF offers an outstanding neuroscience community and desirable
San Francisco location. Applicants with zebrafish experience will be
favored. Send curriculum vitae and names of three references to:
