Connectionists: Research Fellow in Computational Neuroscience

[Sheng Li]

Research Fellow in Computational Neuroscience 

A Research Fellow position is available at the Cognitive NeuroImaging Lab, 
School of Psychology, University of Birmingham, UK.  The work focuses on 
theoretical modelling and advanced computational analyses of 
electrophysiological and functional imaging data (MRI, EEG, MEG). Research 
in the lab examines the neural basis of perceptual decisions and learning 
across the lifespan (http://cnil.bham.ac.uk/ <https://ex1.bham.ac.uk/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://cnil.bham.ac.uk/> ). 

The School of Psychology at the University of Birmingham is a top class 5* 
department that has a dynamic group in Cognitive Neuroscience with strong 
links to Computer Science and Engineering and a state-of-the-art Imaging 
Centre (3T scanner), access to a large group of screened neuropsychological 
patients, EEG/ERP systems, TMS delivery systems, robot systems for haptic 
research, and several systems for eye movement tracking and kinematic 
analysis. 

You should have a background and hold a PhD. in Computer Science, Physics, 
Applied Mathematics, Engineering, Neuroscience or a related field. Advanced 
programming skills (e.g. Matlab, C, OpenGL) are necessary and experience 
with behavioural, imaging and signal processing methods is desirable. 

If you are interested please send a CV and a statement of research interests 
to Prof. Zoe Kourtzi: z.kourtzi at bham.ac.uk.
