Dear All,

below please find an announcement for an open faculty position (tenured) 
in the area of CNS / AI in our department (EE and CS) at the Berlin
University of Technology (Berlin, Germany).

The Berlin area has a high concentration of high quality research 
institutions (three universities, Max-Planck and Fraunhofer institutes,
etc.) and a lively computational neuroscience and AI/machine learning
scene. Besides that, it is a pleasant city to live in and Germany's most
prominent place for cultural activities.

There are no German language requirements, as teaching can be done
in English at least for the first five years, but very likely also for
the period after.

Cheers

Klaus

                       Tenured Faculty Position (W2)

                     "Modeling of Cognitive Processes"

We seek a scientist with a background in computational neuroscience, 
computational cognitive science, machine learning, or artificial
intelligence. The candidate should develop quantitative models of higher
brain functions as inferred, for example, from non-invasive brain signals,
and should combine this modelling work with application oriented research
in machine intelligence (e.g., autonomous agents, man-machine systems).
The faculty position is also part of the Bernstein Center for Computational
Neuroscience Berlin. A strong commitment to excellence in undergraduate and
graduate teaching at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer
Science and at the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience is
expected.

Applications should include CV, summary of teaching and research
experience, list of publications and funding, statement of research
interests, and up to five selected publications.

All applications received before

                              14. 02. 2005

be considered until the position is filled.

Applications should be sent to:

Dekanat, FR 5-1, Fakultaet IV, Technische Universitaet Berlin,
Franklinstrasse 28/29, 10587 Berlin, Germany.

An electronic version should be sent to a.herz at biologie.hu-berlin.de
(Andreas Herz) and oby at cs.tu-berlin.de (Klaus Obermayer) to speed up
the search process.

The Technical University of Berlin wants to increase the percentage of
women on its faculty and strongly encourages applications from
