Postdoctoral Researcher (Lyon/London)
Computational Neuroscience


Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit, University College London, UK
http://www.gatsby.ucl.ac.uk/ and Institute for Cognitive Science, Lyon, 
France http://www.isc.cnrs.fr/index_en.htm


A postdoctoral research position in computational neuroscience is available 
as part of a collaboration between Sophie Deneve at the Institute for 
Cognitive Science in Lyon, France, and Peter Dayan at the Gatsby 
Computational Neuroscience Unit, in London, UK.

For details about the two labs, please contact:

Sophie Deneve: www.gatsby.ucl.ac.uk/~sdeneve
Peter Dayan: www.gatsby.ucl.ac.uk/~dayan

The overall theme of the project is "Bayesian inference models and spiking 
neural networks", and the research will involve building and analysing 
probabilistic treatments of representation, inference and learning in 
spiking models of cortex.

While appointed through University College London, the majority of the 
research will be undertaken at the ISC in Lyon, France, with frequent 
return visits to the Gatsby Unit to ensure effective collaboration. The 
postholder will be provided with a generous travel allowance to facilitate 
travel between the two institutions and to support conference, workshop and 
other collaborative research visits.

A good background in computational neuroscience and statistics is required. 
Candidates with prior experience in modelling and simulating large networks 
of spiking neurons will be given priority.

Salary is competitive, based on experience and achievement. The position is 
available for immediate start. The appointment will be for an initial 
period of two years but may be extended depending on progress and funding.

Applicants should send, in pdf format, a CV, a statement of research 
interests, and the names and full contact details (including e-mail 
addresses) of three referees to: deneve at isc.cnrs.fr

Informal enquiries should be addressed to Sophie Deneve at this same e-mail 
address.

Applicants are directed to further particulars about the position available 
from: http://www.gatsby.ucl.ac.uk/vacancies/index.html

The closing date for applications is 12 December 2004.
