Connectionists: Faculty position in Computational Neuroscience, Cambridge University

[Máté Lengyel]

Faculty position in Computational Neuroscience, Cambridge University

Applications are invited for a tenure-track University Lectureship (~ US Assistant Professor equivalent) in the broad area of Computational Neuroscience, including Computational Cognitive Science in the Computational and Biological Learning Lab (cbl.eng.cam.ac.uk). CBL combines expertise in computational neuroscience and cognitive science (Daniel Wolpert, Mate Lengyel, Rich Turner) and machine learning (Zoubin Ghahramani, Carl Rasmussen). We particularly encourage applicants who would complement our current research activities. The successful applicant’s research should use computational or theoretical approaches to neuroscience, and may combine these approaches with behavioural experiments.

Informal enquiries may be made to Daniel Wolpert (wolpert at eng.cam.ac.uk), Mate Lengyel (m.lengyel at eng.cam.ac.uk) or Richard Turner (ret26 at cam.ac.uk).

Timeline:
 * Closing date of applications: Monday 4th March 2013
 * Interviews: March 18th & 19th 2013
 * Decisions: immediately after interviews
