The Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit invites applications for
postdoctoral training fellowships in machine learning and related
areas. The Unit is especially keen to recruit researchers with
expertise in graphical models, Bayesian statistics, nonparametric
methods, kernel methods, semi-supervised learning, reinforcement
learning, game theory or machine learning applied to neural data, natural
language processing, machine vision or bioinformatics.

The Unit is a world-class centre for theoretical neuroscience and
machine learning. Yee Whye Teh will join the faculty in January 2007.

The Unit provides a unique environment in which a critical mass of
theoreticians interact closely with each other and with other
world-class research groups in related departments at University
College London (UCL).  The Unit's visitor and seminar programmes
enable staff and students to engage with leading researchers from
across the world.

Candidates must have a strong analytical background and demonstrable
interest and expertise in statistical machine learning.

Stipend according to experience and achievement. Funding for the
fellowships is available for up to two years.

Applicants should send in pdf, plain text or Word format a CV, a
statement of research interests, and the names and full contact
details (including e-mail addresses) for three academic referees to:
