Candidates should have a background in mathematics or physics. Of particular to us are familiarity of the candidate with slow-fast dynamical systems, singular perturbation theory, bifurcation theory, probability theory, and a strong interest in applying these theories to neuroscience. Ability and willingness to do programming will also be a strong point to select candidates. They will be expected to interact with other participants of SP4 as well as with some participants of SP3. Interested candidates should send a CV and a short research proposal regarding the proposed topic (maximum one page) to one of the following address:</span><br style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class=""><a href="mailto:mathieu.desroches@inria.fr" style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; color: rgb(65, 131, 196); font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class="">mathieu.desroches@inria.fr</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="">, </span><a href="mailto:olivier.faugeras@inria.fr" style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; color: rgb(65, 131, 196); font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class="">olivier.faugeras@inria.fr</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="">, </span><a href="mailto:romain.veltz@inria.fr" style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; color: rgb(65, 131, 196); font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class="">romain.veltz@inria.fr</a><br style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class=""><u style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class="">Deadline for applying</u><span style="font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="">: 28 February 2018.</span><br style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class=""><u style="-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact; font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" class="">Expected start date</u><span style="font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="">: 1st June 2018.</span></div><div class=""><span style="font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class=""><br class=""></span></div><div class=""><span style="font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="">Best regards</span></div><div class=""><span style="font-family: Helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class=""><br class=""></span></div><div class="">Romain Veltz</div><div class=""><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class="">MathNeuro Project Team <br class="">Inria Sophia Antipolis Méditerranée <br class="">2004 Route des Lucioles-BP 93 <br class="">FR-06902 Sophia Antipolis<br class="">Tel: +33 4 92 38 76 90<br class=""><a href="http://romainveltz.pythonanywhere.com/" class="">http://romainveltz.pythonanywhere.com/</a></div>
