Working at Charité
Our lab's research (https://www.claudiaboehmlab.com/) is dedicated to uncovering how experiences transform neural activity. We focus on learning, the neural circuits and codes governing cognitive flexibility and social cognition and the disruption of cognitive processes in models of increased vulnerability to mental disorders. To address these questions, we use rodent models combined with advanced techniques such as large-scale electrophysiological recordings with Neuropixels probes, innovative behavioral paradigms, optogenetic perturbations, and advanced data analysis methods.
We are currently looking for a student assistant to support data curation and preprocessing. We are especially interested in candidates looking to continue with a Master's or Bachelor thesis in our group.
