<div>Postdoctoral and graduate research positions are available at <a href="http://mullerlab.ca/"><b>Western University</b></a> (London, ON) and the <a href="http://www.fields.utoronto.ca/activities/fields-lab-network-science"><b>Fields Lab for Network Science</b></a> (Toronto,
ON). These positions will be supervised by <b>Lyle Muller</b> and involve collaborations with advanced methods of brain imaging (Mark Schnitzer, Stanford), neuroengineering (Duygu Kuzum, UCSD), theoretical neuroscience (Todd Coleman, Stanford), and neurophysiology
of visual perception (John Reynolds, Salk Institute for Biological Studies). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In collaboration with this multi-disciplinary team, researchers will bring together data science, computational science, and applied mathematics to understand spatiotemporal dynamics and computation in the circuits of neocortex. The project may include
intermittent travel between labs to present results and facilitate collaborative work.</div>
