[Hualou Liang]

Positions Available: PostDoc & Scientific Programmer 
University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston

Applications are invited for Postdoctoral fellow and Programmer
positions currently open in the group of Dr. Hualou Liang
(http://www.sahs.uth.tmc.edu/hliang/) at the University of Texas Health
Science Center at Houston to participate in ongoing research projects
that analyze large time series datasets being gathered under various
tasks (e.g. visual selective attention and visuomotor pattern
discrimination). The project involves the development and application of
modern signal processing techniques to multielectrode neural recordings.
The successful candidates should be highly motivated, and are expected
to work in a team, with the opportunity to work with distinguished
collaborators in neural data acquisition, analysis, and algorithm
development.  

WHAT IS REQUIRED? 

* Postdoctoral fellow: The ideal candidate should have, or be about to
receive, a Ph.D. in a relevant discipline with substantial
mathematical/computational experience (especially in signal processing,
time series analysis, dynamical systems, multivariate statistics).
Programming skills in C and Matlab are essential. Experience in
neuroscience is advantageous but not required. 

* Programmer: similar to the postdoctoral requirements (MS also
considered), but with excellent computer skills (UNIX, Windows) to work
on in-house multivariate autoregressive modeling software for analysis
of neurobiological time series, as well as general web programming (e.g.
cgi). 

HOW TO APPLY?

Interested individuals should email a curriculum vitae, a brief
statement of research interests, and the names of three references to
Dr. Hualou Liang at Hualou.liang at uth.tmc.edu.
