Post-Doc in Neural Processes in Cognition for Fall 92

[SCHNEIDER@vms.cis.pitt.edu]

                        Postdoctoral Training in 
                       NEURAL PROCESSES IN COGNITION
                              For Fall 1992

The Pittsburgh Neural Processes in Cognition program, in its second
year is providing interdisciplinary training in brain sciences. 
The National Science Foundation has established an
interdisciplinary program investigating the neurobiology of
cognition utilizing neuroanatomical, neurophysiological, and
computer simulation procedures.  Students perform original research
investigating cortical function at multiple levels of analysis. 
State of the art facilities include: computerized microscopy, human
and animal electrophysiological instrumentation, behavioral
assessment laboratories, MRI and PET brain scanners, the Pittsburgh
Supercomputing Center, and access to human clinical populations. 
The is a joint program between the University of Pittsburgh, its
School of Medicine, and Carnegie Mellon University.  

Postdoctoral applicants MUST HAVE UNITED STATES RESIDENT'S  STATUS. 
Applications are requested by June 20, 1992.  Applicants must have
a sponsor from the training faculty for the Neural Processes in
Cognition Program.  Application materials will be sent upon
request.  Each student receives full financial support, travel
allowances, and a computer workstation access.  Last year's class
included mathematicians, psychologists, and neuroscience
researchers.  Applications are encouraged from students with
interest in biology, psychology, engineering, physics, mathematics,
or computer science.
