Hi all,

老板有两个博士名额空缺，希望招中国学生~（他说他当年在哥大的中国同学都很勤奋很聪明。。。）
下面是老板写的介绍和要求：
We invite applications for two PhD studentships in a group of Dr. Ayumu Tashiro in Warwick-NTU Neuroscience research program, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. Our work focuses on the function of hippocampal circuitry through a multi-disciplinary approach combining virus-mediated genetic manipulation, optogenetics, behavioral analysis and unit recording techniques in behaving rodents. PhD student positions will be affiliated with School of Biological Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, and be available from August 2015.

Project 1 – In vivo unit recording from specific cell types in the dentate gyrus (granule cells, mossy cells, adult-born neurons)
Project 2 – Roles of astrocyte-neuron signaling in neuronal information processing in the hippocampus
Project 3 – Molecular mechanisms underlying activity-dependent regulation of adult hippocampal neurogenesis (Ref. Tashiro et al. Nature 442:929-33, 2006. J Neurosci, 27:3252-9, 2007, Aasebo et al., Euro J. Neurosci, 33, 1094-100, 2011).

Requirements for successful candidates
1) A good B.Sc degree (higher second class honors upper division) in Science, Engineering or related field
2) Research experience in a laboratory
3) Basic knowledge in neuroscience
4) For applicants who received degrees from universities in non-English speaking countries, GRE (or GATE) and TOEFL (or IELTS) scores are required.

To apply, please send your C.V., transcripts (bachelor and master) and GRE (GATE) and TOEFL (IELTS) scores by email to ayumu.tashiro@gmail.com.

如果你有兴趣的并觉得自己满足要求的话，就按照邮箱地址联系老板吧。

A：就是一个联合博士培养啦。在英国的Warwick待两年，在新加坡的NTU待两年

Q：全奖么？够用么？
A： 全奖，够用

Q：实验室组成咋样？
A： 实验室刚从欧洲搬到新加坡，里面只有我一个中国学生，寂寞如雪。。。有中国同仁过来真是热烈欢迎
