You will have:
An excellent research record including publication in leading scientific journals, development of proposals for research funding and supervision of  research students
Expertise in the growth and use of cultured neurons on multi-electrode arrays, ideally applied to cognitive robotic embodiments
The skills, interests and disposition to lead and contribute to collaborative research both within the School and across the University
A broad understanding of computing and/or engineering in the context of neuroscience
