Connectionists: Postdoctoral position in computational optics and neuroscience

[Tim Holy]

A postdoctoral position is available to an individual interested in applying 
computational approaches to optical imaging and neuroscience. Our research 
group develops new techniques for high-speed three-dimensional microscopy, 
with applications to monitoring neuronal activity. Our techniques enable 
simultaneous recording in populations of hundreds or thousands of neurons in 
intact tissues. Applicants may consult our web site (http://holylab.wustl.edu) 
and publications for information about some of our scientific and technological 
interests.

Candidates for this position must have strong skills in both analytical 
mathematics and numerical analysis. The research program for this position 
includes various topics in computational optics, such as adaptive optics and 
phase diverse imaging. Formal training in optics would be viewed as a strength 
but is not required; substantive mathematical and numerical talents are the 
primary requisite for this position.

The laboratory is at Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine, 
ranked as one of the top 5 medical schools in the United States. This position 
is supported by NIH funding, including funding from the NIH Director's Pioneer 
Award program.

To apply, send an email containing a statement of your research interests, 
your CV, and contact information for three references to Tim Holy at 
holy at wustl.edu. Candidate must be available for an interview in St. Louis, 
USA.
