Open Position
We are seeking motivated individuals, interested in the mystery of learning and memory.
Positions for Medical and Undergraduate Students
Medical and undergraduate students are always welcome depending on the availability of staff.
Please consult Dr. Hayashi.
Graduate Students
Either biomedical or computational background is highly desired. Depending on your candidacy, we may suggest you stay a year as a research student before committing to each other.
Examples of current projects for graduate students.
Molecular biology of long-term potentiation Analysis of neuronal circuit process of memory consolidation Analysis of hippocampal neuronal cell assembly during learning Analysis of hippocampal neuronal cell assembly under pathological conditions
Master Course
If you have only a bachelor's degree, you can apply to the Graduate School of Medical Science (5 years). If you do not have a biology background, you can still apply to Kyoto University Graduate School of Biostudies, which holds a special program for non-biomedical students.
Doctoral Course
If you hold a master's degree or finished 6-year undergraduate education (medical, pharmacy, or veterinarian schools), you can apply to the Graduate School of Medical Science (3 years) or Graduate School of Medicine (4 years). Please note that the quota of the Graduate School of Medical Science is small and unpredictable for PhD students. So please consider applying to 4-year course.
Postdocs
We are currently actively looking into a highly motivated individual. Please consult us.
