       PhD SCHOLARSHIP IN COMPUTATIONAL NEUROSCIENCE

            DEPARTMENT OF THEORETICAL PHYSICS

              UNIVERSIDAD AUTONOMA DE MADRID

                    MADRID - SPAIN


One PhD scholarship is available at the group of Computational
Neuroscience of the Universidad Autonoma de Madrid (UAM) for thesis
research on computational approaches to brain function.
 
The scholarship is to work with Prof Nestor Parga and colleagues to
develop and apply theoretical techniques to study information
processing in the brain. The appointee will be working collaboratively
as part of a team.

Highly motivated candidates should have a degree in a relevant
scientific discipline such as Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science,
or a Neuroscience-related discipline, have knowledge of basic computer
programming and an interest in computational approaches to brain
function (information theory, statistical physics, numerical
simulations).

The scholarship is for a period of four years, starting after the
summer of 2001. Candidates should be citizens from countries members 
of the European Union.
