<span class="s1 ContentPasted0" style="font-kerning:none">Applications are invited for an externally funded Postdoctoral Research Associate position at the Intelligent Systems Research Centre (ISRC) in Ulster University, UK. The successful candidate will develop
and apply computational modelling, and theoretical and analytical techniques to understand brain and behavioural data across primate species, and to apply biologically based neural network modelling to elucidate mechanisms underlying perceptual decision-making.
The duration of the position is 24 months, from January 2024 till end of 2025. </span></p>
