The nanoprobes group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) is looking for a Predoctoral Researcher to develop synthetic photochromic compounds for the manipulation of ion channels and receptors. The contract will be within the framework of ongoing projects of the laboratory, whose objectives include both fundamental investigation of neuronal circuits and novel therapeutic developments for sensory restoration, and against excitatory/inhibitory disbalances in the central nervous system such as epilepsy.

Nuria Montserrat, group leader at IBEC, is invited to the Onda Cero program “Más de uno”, where she shares her research with organoids to study diseases or replace damaged tissues and also explains the ability of the amphibian called axolotl to regenerate their own organs.
