      engineering. The candidate should show enthusiasm for analysing
      large scale data sets that include but not limited to:
      behavioural, neural and physiological data. Experience with
      machine learning techniques and animal tracking software programs

      mechanisms underlying social foraging” in collaboration with the
      experimental groups of Robert Froemke (New York University) and
      Jee Hyun Choi (Korean Institute of Science and Technology). The
      project aims to understand neuro-metabolic mechanisms underlying
      social foraging. The PostDoc will have the opportunity to travel
      to the experimental collaborators in New York and Seoul.</p>
