Brown University - Tenure Track Position in Computational Neuroscience

The Brown University Department of Neuroscience invites applications for a tenure-track position as Assistant Professor in the area of computational neuroscience. This appointment will be made in conjunction with the interdepartmental Brown Institute for Brain Science as part of an expansion that includes seven new faculty positions. Candidates should have a Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent degree, postdoctoral research experience, and a record of research excellence. We strongly encourage applications from women and minorities. Applicants should be developing and using computational approaches to address fundamental issues of neural information processing. We encourage applications from candidates whose research can yield insight into neurologic or psychiatric disorders. The successful applicant will bridge areas of research strength within the Brown Brain Science community and work collaboratively with engineers, clinicians, mathematicians, computer scientists, and neuroscientists. The applicant is expected to establish an independent research program supported by external funds and will teach undergraduate, graduate, and/or medical students. The appointment will be in the Department of Neuroscience, with the possibility of a secondary appointment in another Institute-affiliated department.

The search committee will give first consideration to applications received by April 27, 2012. Applicants should submit a pdf version of their curriculum vitae, research and teaching statements, and three representative publications. They should also request that three letters of recommendations be sent electronically to compneurosearch at brown.edu.
