Connectionists: New Postdoctoral position in computational neuroscience at IIT - Laboratory of Neural Computation, Rovereto, Italy

[Stefano Panzeri]

 Dear all



I have the opportunity to open a new postdoctoral position in my laboratory
(The “Neural Computation” laboratory) at the Centre for Neuroscience and
Cognitive Systems in Trento (Italy).



The postdoc will work to develop a set of novel information theoretic
algorithms for the analysis of simultaneous recordings from large
populations of retinal ganglion cells under dynamic natural visual
stimulation. The project will be carried out in collaboration with the
laboratory of Prof Tim Gollisch (University of Gottingen).



Interested applicants should contact Stefano Panzeri ( stefano.panzeri
@iit.it ) by email, emailing their CV with the inquiry.



The position can be opened very rapidly. Therefore interested candidates
are warmly suggested to inquire as soon as possible.



For recent reviews about the work carried out by the laboratory of Neural
Computation, prospective applicants are invited to consult the following
articles:

circuits. Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 14:770-785;
