Connectionists: Ph.D. and Postdoc positions in computational neuroscience and neuroimaging with Robert Wilson at the University of Arizona

[Robert Wilson]

Join the recently established Neuroscience of Reinforcement Learning
(NeuRL) lab led by Robert Wilson at the University of Arizona
(http://www.u.arizona.edu/~bob/).  Research in the lab focuses on
computational, behavioral, pupillometric and neuroimaging studies of
human reinforcement learning and decision making.  Potential projects
include: probing the neural basis of exploration and foraging, the
role of randomness in decision making, and the representation of state
information in the brain.

Postdoc applicants:
Candidates for the Postdoc position should have a Ph.D. in
neuroscience, psychology, computer science, bioengineering or related
field.  A strong background in functional imaging and/or computational
modeling is preferred. To apply, please send a cover letter stating
background and research interests, a CV, one or two representative
publications/working papers, and contact information of at least two
references.

Tucson:
Situated between four mountain ranges, the highest nearly 10,000 feet,
Tucson and its environs are both stunningly beautiful and remarkably
affordable. A mecca for cyclists and hikers, Tucson and its year-round
sunshine nurture a thriving outdoor community, as well as a vibrant
downtown cultural scene with music venues, art galleries and fine
dining. Low rents and affordable amenities make for comfortable living
just blocks from the university. Tucson is among the most livable,
enjoyable destinations in the United States!
