Join @obarnstedt for your PhD in Germany!🇩🇪 Cool techniques, super passionate mentor, and amazing scientific environment 🧠
Have you ever wondered how memories are processed downstream of the #hippocampus and how this is affected by #Alzheimer's? We believe we may find some answers by riding all the way down the fornix to the mammillary body. Apply here for a #PhD with us:

Listening to Roger Nicoll’s journey to uncover the molecular mechanisms of memory was a blast. Half a century of science packed into one lecture, reminding us to be critical, thorough, and always challenge our own hypotheses. And… if you remember anything, thank CaMKII! 💭
