Description of the research topic:

The neurons located in the paired suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) synchronize all cellular clocks all over the body. They are considered as the master clock of the circadian pacemaker activities.
SCN are found within the neuroendocrine hypothalamus, a brain region that is known to regulate a series of homeostatic mechanism in a lateralized manner. Up to date, no data are available on how the symmetrically localized SCN on the left and right sides of the third brain ventricle integrate all the inputs and outputs, whether the left and right sides work as identical members of the circadian system, or they play distinct roles in the regulation of circadian rhythm related mechanisms in rats.

Further requirements: 
Degree in biology or veterinary medicine; professional commitment; mid-level, C-type English state exam
