Connectionists: Open Positions in Connectomics/Machine Learning/Computer Vision

[Jain, Viren]

The Jain lab at the HHMI Janelia Farm Research Campus near Washington, DC, has open positions for researchers with experience and interests in machine learning, computer vision, or quantitative analysis of brain wiring diagrams.

Example projects being pursued in the lab include:
* developing large, deep machine learning networks for biological image analysis using Janelia’s 4000-core CPU/GPU cluster
* developing novel structured prediction methods for parsing image data
* developing tools for crowdsourcing image analysis
* developing novel analytical techniques for understanding network structure in wiring diagrams

Positions could be at the level of a postdoctoral fellow, research scientist, or software engineer, depending on the individual.
