PhD-student in neurophysiology (fixed term, 4 years)
Center for Neurogenomics and Cognitive Research in Amsterdam (see www.cncr.nl)
Job description
Presynaptic mechanisms modify both the amount of synaptic vesicles available for secretion and their likeliness to be secreted (“release probability”). The aim of this project is to identify and characterize the molecular factors that account for these two mechanisms to regulate secretion in nerve terminals.
