The Gonzalez Lab at UCSF is seeking a Research Technician to join a multidisciplinary neuroscience team studying how the brain controls communication, social behavior, and sleep. The lab combines animal behavior, high-density electrophysiology, optical imaging, closed-loop stimulation, machine learning, and custom instrument development to understand neural circuit dynamics in birds and humans. Current and upcoming projects include studies of birdsong fillers and vocal repair, neural decoding during sleep, and later-stage work in human EEG and natural speech. The broader goal is to understand how brains generate speech-like sequences, how these sequences are altered during social interaction, and how the sleeping brain reactivates or transforms behaviorally meaningful experiences.
