The group is looking for a Ph.D. student to take advantage of these exciting new capabilities to study the organization of the cytoskeleton in neurons. The project aims at characterizing the interplay between cytoskeletal rearrangements and synaptic plasticity. The candidate will carry out the research project in close collaboration with the chemists and microscopists in the department. He\/she will develop and optimize approaches for the imaging of the structures of interest under fixed and live conditions, and implement image analysis routines.<br \/>\nThe candidate should have an excellent track record, be highly motivated and prepared to work in a truly multidisciplinary and international team. He\/she should hold a Master\u2019s (or equivalent) degree in life sciences and have a strong background in biotechnology, cell biology or neurosciences (or related subjects). Experience with light microscopy (super-resolution or confocal microscopy) and image analysis is desirable.<br \/>\nPh. D. candidates have the opportunity to participate in one of several interdisciplinary Ph. D. programs in collaboration with the University of G\u00f6ttingen.<br \/>\nThe payment and benefits are based on the TV\u00f6D guidelines.<br \/>\nThe Max Planck Society is committed to increasing the number of individuals with disabilities in its workforce and therefore encourages applications from such qualified individuals.<br \/>\nFurthermore, the Max Planck Society seeks to increase the number of women in those areas where they are underrepresented and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply.<br \/>\nFor further information, please contact Dr. Elisa D\u2019Este (<a href=\"mailto:elisa.deste@mpibpc.mpg.de%29\">elisa.deste@mpibpc.mpg.de)<\/a> or Prof. Dr. Stefan W.
