<div class="gmail-u-add-margin-top"><p>The ENI-G, a joint initiative
between the University Medical Center Göttingen and the
Max-Planck-Society, provides an exceptional environment for excellent
young researchers in the neurosciences.</p>
<p><strong>We seek:</strong></p>
<p>Applicants with an outstanding record of research in neuroscience.
Topics range from molecular and cellular physiology, neuronal circuit
analysis, imaging (at all scales), to computational and cognitive
neuroscience. Current work at the ENI-G focuses on physiology, sensory
processing and plasticity in multiple species, from invertebrates to
humans. Research that complements these already established topics,
including computational approaches at the ENI-G is also welcome.</p>
<p><strong>We offer:</strong></p>
<p>Group leaders a maximal amount of independence while also providing
the support necessary to build up a new research program. ENI-G will
provide office and laboratory space as well as a generous start-up.
State of the art equipment, including dedicated microscopy
infrastructure, animal facilities, a precision workshop, IT and
administrative support are available in house. Unparalleled
opportunities for scientific collaboration and interaction exist within
the Göttingen Research Campus, including the University of Göttingen and
its Medical School, three Max Planck Institutes (Biophysical Chemistry,
Experimental Medicine, and Dynamics and Self Organization), the German
Primate Center and the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience.
We will work closely with the recently established Cluster of Excellence
"Multiscale Bioimaging: from Molecular Machines to Networks of
Excitable Cells (<a href="https://mbexc.de/en/">https://mbexc.de/en/</a>)" as well as the newly starting
Heart and Brain Center Göttingen.</p>
<p>In addition to the excellent research environment that ENI-G
provides, its independent group leaders can benefit from the resources
and funding opportunities offered by the Collaborative Research Centers
(CRC / SFB) within the Göttingen Neuroscience community. The ENI-G also
houses the distinguished graduate program ‘IMPRS Neurosciences’,
facilitating interactions with excellent students and providing
opportunities for teaching.</p>
<p>You will have an experienced mentor by your side, receive broad
administrative support, professional leadership training, and help with
relocation and establishing a life in Germany, including visa
application, housing, schooling, and day-care. Successful group leaders
will have the opportunity to obtain a permanent position after a two
step internal and external evaluation.</p>
<p><strong>We look forward to:</strong></p>
<p>Applications from outstanding researchers who are enthusiastic about
pursuing an independent research program in an environment that supports
cutting edge research. The successful candidate is expected to develop a
vigorous research program with a Ph.D. received within the last five
years. Relevant research training and outstanding research reflected by
high-impact publications are a prerequisite for consideration. The
applicant is expected to acquire competitive third-party funding, and
eligibility for ERC Starting Grant / DFG Emmy Noether level funding (or
comparable) is a requirement. Details about funding opportunities can be
found at <a href="http://www.eni-g.de/career/group-leader">http://www.eni-g.de/career/group-leader</a>. Interested candidates
should submit their curriculum vitae and record of publications
highlighting their 3-5 most significant publications, as well as a
research statement (3-5 pages), and a copy of their PhD degree,
preferably in one pdf. Application deadline: 31 August 2020.</p>
