<div dir="ltr">A fully funded POSTDOC POSITION in computational neuroscience is
available in the lab of Klaus Wimmer, Computational Neuroscience Group
at the CRM, Barcelona, Spain.<br><br><b>Profile</b><br>We are looking
for an enthusiastic and scientifically curious researcher with a strong
interest in computational neuroscience. The perfect candidate has a
strong mathematical, physical or engineering background, scientific
programming skills (Matlab, Python), and a keen interest in biological
neural systems. Knowledge in computational neuroscience, dynamical
systems, machine learning or advanced statistics is a plus. Good team
spirit is a must.<br><br><b>Research topic</b><br>The neural basis of
decision making and working memory has been studied extensively, yet our
understanding of how distributed circuits in the brain perform these
cognitive functions is only at the beginning. Models of cortical
circuits can shed light on the underlying neural network dynamics. The
Postdoc will work on building such models and on cutting-edge analysis
of large-scale neural activity recordings (neuronal population
recordings, fMRI, EEG).<br><br><b>The lab</b><br>The Computational
Neuroscience Group is based at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica at the
campus of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. It is a joint effort of
Alex Roxin and Klaus Wimmer, and forms part of a larger network of
theoretical and systems neuroscience labs in Barcelona. The successful
candidate will benefit from a vibrant and stimulating research community
and will have the opportunity of enjoying a lively city.<br><br>More information can be found at: <a href="https://sites.google.com/view/wimmerlab" target="_blank">https://sites.google.com/view/<wbr>wimmerlab</a><br><br><b>How to apply</b><br>Interested candidates should e-mail their application as a single pdf file to Klaus Wimmer, <a href="mailto:kwimmer@crm.cat" target="_blank">kwimmer@crm.cat</a>,
