<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">Funded PhD positions in Neurophotonics and Visual Neuroscience at the Université de Montréal (www.opto.umontreal.ca/cortex). We use a range of behavioral and neurophysiological techniques including calcium imaging and
optogenetics on mice to study brain circuits underlying vision. We also focus on exploring plasticity after a stroke in the visual system and developing innovative neuroprosthesis devices to restore vision.
