Connectionists: Postdoctoral position in computational neuroscience at UCSD

[Maxim Bazhenov]

Applications are invited for post-doctoral research position in the 
laboratory of Dr. Maxim Bazhenov (http://www.bazhlab.ucsd.edu/) at the 
University of California, San Diego to study role of sleep in memory and 
learning. The ultimate goal of the project is to understand how the 
interaction among brain areas during sleep leads to consolidation of 
memory for recent learning and how sensory or electrical stimulation can 
enhance memory consolidation. This project involves close collaboration 
with several experimental laboratories.

The successful candidate will be responsible for the design of the 
anatomically realistic brain network models based on experimental data. 
These models will be applied to understand network dynamics that are 
involved in the processes of memory consolidation, to design optimal 
stimulation approaches, to guide data analysis and to make predictions 
for future experimental studies. Qualified applicants are expected to 
have experience in computational/theoretical neuroscience and neural 
modeling. Programming experience with C/C++ is required. Knowledge of 
PYTHON and MATLAB is a significant plus.

The University of California offers excellent benefits. Salary is based 
on research experience. Applicants should send a brief statement of 
research interests, a CV and the names of three references to Maxim 
Bazhenov at mbazhenov at ucsd.edu
