five years post at cambridge

[Dr J. Feng]

The Babraham Institute, Cambridge


Computational Neuroscientist/Electrophysiologist  (Ref. KK/CNE)
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral scientist to join a group of
systems neuroscientists within the Laboratory of Cognitive and
Developmental Neuroscience investigating how the brain encodes visual and
olfactory cues associated with recognition or both social and non-social
objects using novel multi-array electrophysiological recording techniques
in both rodent and sheep models. This post is available initially for 5
years. It would either suit an individual with primary expertise in
computational analysis and modelling of sensory system functioning or an
in vivo electrophysiologist with good expertise in computational analysis
of complex single-unit data. In both cases there would be significant
involvement in carrying out multi-array electrophysiological recording
experiments and subsequent data analysis and representation. The
individual would also be expected to work closely with
electrophysiologists both within the group and the USA and to co-ordinate
with other UK-based Computational Neuroscientists involved with the
projects. The group already has excellent computational facilities to deal
with the large amounts data associated with multi-array recording
experiments
