University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus Department: Anesthesiology Job Title: Research Services Lab Science Professional - Entry Position # – Requisition # 39313 Job Summary This position will support Cruz‐Martin lab members in the study of the developmental mechanisms underlying the wiring of prefrontal cortex networks (see Comer et al., 2020 Plos Biology and Johnson etal., 2022). In our lab, we utilize a variety of methods and approaches to analyze biological mechanisms. These include in vivo calcium and dendritic spine imaging using multiphoton microscopy, in vivo calcium imaging using 3D‐printed miniature microscopes to record neural activity in freely moving rodents, spatial transcriptomics, generation of genetic mouse models, optogenetic interrogation of neural circuits, and the use of electrophysiological methods. Key Responsibilities Support for the development of in vivo microscope systems. Set up lab equipment. Perform behavioral measurements using 1P and 2P minis...
