Openings come up throughout the year. While all
potential team members should be interested in
neurobiological questions at some level, opportunities
exist for trainees from a wide range of
backgrounds. |

Depending on their background and motivation, students
may choose from a wide range of approaches within
systems and cellular neuroscience, including everything
from in vitro
or in vivo
electrophysiology and cell imaging or computational
approaches, to neuroanatomical techniques and basic
protein assays. Students should have good quantitative
skills, with preparation in the biological and/or
physical sciences, or engineering. Candidates must be
accepted by one of the graduate programs (below) with
which the laboratory is affiliated. If you are
interested in joining the lab, please send an email to dgillespie at mcmaster.ca
