**POST DOCTORAL position Interneural synchrony in emotion recognition: a cross-species investigation (IN-SYNC)**
- (25000002)
- Location: Genova and Roma, Italy_

**WHO WE ARE**

At IIT we work enthusiastically to develop human-centered Science and Technology to tackle some of the most pressing societal challenges of our times and transfer these technologies to the production system and society (see our Strategic Plan online for an overview of IIT’s goals). This project will involve active participation from two groups within the Brain and Machines flagship program of the IIT, ensuring a truly interdisciplinary experience.

**YOUR TEAM**

You’d be working across two multicultural and multidisciplinary groups, where biologists, pharmacologists, psychologists, medical doctors, mathematicians and bioengineers collaborate, each with their own expertise, to carry out common research goals.

To achieve this goal, we will integrate human and non-human neuroscience methods. For the latter, we will use a combined approach that tightly links advanced behavioral outputs (e.g., social tasks including emotion recognition) with cell-specific circuit-level manipulations using in vivo chemo
- and optogenetics, in vivo miniscopes, in vivo fiber photometry, and in vivo electrophysiology. For humans, we will utilize state-of-the-art behavioral methods (body kinematics, video-based analysis of facial movements, eye tracking) combined with multiperson (dual EEG) recordings.

For reference to recent non-human work, please see: Maltese et al., _Nature Neuroscience_ 2024; Dautan et al.,_ Nature Neuroscience_ 2024; Scheggia et al., _Nature Neuroscience_ 2022; Scheggia et al., _Nature Neuroscience_ 2020; Ferretti et al., _Current Biology_ 2019; Scheggia et al., _Nature Communications_ 2018.

For reference to recent human work, please see: Bigand et al., _Current Biology_ 2024; Koul et al., _NeuroImage_ 2023; Novembre et al., _Trends in Cognitive Sciences_ 2021.

Within the team, your main responsibilities will be:

- Design and perform in vivo multibrain miniscope recordings during socio-cognitive behavioral paradigms.
- Cell type and circuit specific recordings and manipulations during socio-cognitive tasks.
- Design and perform multiperson experiments in humans, combining behavioral and neural recording techniques, as specified above.
- Analyze human and non-human datasets.

**WHAT WOULD MAKE YOU SHINE**
- A PhD in Neuroscience, Psychology, Pharmacology, Statistics, Medicine, Genetics, Bioengineering, Biology, Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science or related fields.
- Documented experience on in vivo experimentation
- A strong publication record.
- Experience in coding and, ideally, signal processing.
- Experience in running multiperson experiments or analyzing multiperson datasets.
- The ability to properly organize, report and publish research data.
- Documented experience in mentoring junior scientists.
- Excellent spoken and written English.

**Other important skills evaluated**
- Experience in brain circuits manipulations.
- Good communication skills.
- Strong problem-solving attitude.
- High motivation to learn.
- Spirit of innovation and creativity.
- Good in time and priority management.
- Ability to work in a challenging and international environment.
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a highly interdisciplinary environment

**COMPENSATION & BENEFITS**
- Competitive salary package for international standards
- Private health care coverage
- Wide range of staff discounts

- Application’s deadline: February 28_th_ 2025_
- We inform you that the information you provide will be used solely for the purposes of evaluating and selecting professional profiles in order to meet the requirements of Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia._
- Your data will be processed by Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, based in Genoa, Via Morego 30, acting as Data Controller, in compliance with the rules on protection of personal data, including those related to data security._
