Connectionists: Bernstein Fellow PostDoc-Position: Bernstein Fellow for Computational Neuroscience

[Tobias Niemann]

Applications are invited for Postdoctoral Research Positions in 
Computational Neuroscience at the recently established Bernstein Center 
for Computational Neuroscience (BCCN) in Göttingen, Germany. Göttingen 
is a center of neuroscience in Europe hosting numerous internationally 
recognized neuroscience research institutions, including three Max 
Planck Institutes, the European Neuroscience Institute, the German 
Primate Research Center, and Göttingen University's Centers for Systems 
Neuroscience (ZNV) and for the Molecular Physiology of the Brain (CMPB). 
The BCCN integrates theoretical and experimental research groups from 
these institutions to foster interdisciplinary research in computational 
neuroscience specifically supporting close collaboration between 
theorists and experimental researchers.

We are looking for strong research personalities, who are experienced in 
the field of Computational Neuroscience and/or related disciplines such 
as theoretical physics, biophysics, mathematics, or computer science and 
with commitment to a research career in neuroscience. Prior biological 
or neuroscience training is welcome but not required. The Bernstein 
Fellow will have the opportunity to collaborate with other members of 
the BCCN or to establish an own research program which complements the 
activities of the BCCN.

Initially the positions are limited to two years and may be extended to 
up to four years. Application deadline is 31 August 2006. Please submit 
your application preferably in one single PDF-document, including cover 
letter, CV, list of publications, research proposal/interests, names of 
three possible referees, relevant certificates, and copies of three of 
your most important publications to:
