Applicants will join a collaboration at Vanderbilt between Thomas Palmeri, Jeffrey Schall, and Gordon Logan linking cognitive models with neural data, with the aim of developing and testing models that explain the behavioral and neural dynamics of perceptual decision making, visual search, and cognitive control.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p class=""></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Projects variously combine cognitive modeling, neural modeling, neurophysiology and electrophysiology, and eye movements. The ideal applicant will have expertise in one or more of these areas and wish to develop new expertise linking these areas together in unique ways.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Research facilities include computer workstations, laboratory behavioral testing stations, eye trackers, and a shared 6000-core / 500TB compute cluster at Vanderbilt’s ACCRE for analyses and modeling.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Candidates can hold a Ph.D. in psychology, neuroscience, computer science, mathematics, engineering, or related disciplines. Candidates should have demonstrated skills in computer programming and statistical analyses; some background in computational modeling is strongly desired. Start date is negotiable, but preference will be given to candidates who can begin within six months. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis as they arrive. Salary will be based on NIH postdoctoral scale; we anticipate a three-year fellowship, pending annual review and reappointment. Applicants should send a cover letter with a brief research statement, a CV, and names and email addresses of three references to <a href="mailto:thomas.j.palmeri@vanderbilt.edu" class="">thomas.j.palmeri@vanderbilt.edu</a>.</p><div apple-content-edited="true" class="">
