[Idan Segev]

                            Call for graduate and post-doctoral research in theoretical neuroscience at the Hebrew University 
 
The Max Planck Hebrew University Center for Brain Research invites applications for research positions at the Hebrew University at the graduate and postdoctoral levels, for theoretical research in the general areas of cortical circuitry, sensory processing, and sensory-motor loops. The research will be conducted at the Edmond and Lily Safra Center for Brain Sciences (ELSC), Hebrew University, under the supervision of Professors Idan Segev and Haim Sompolinsky in tight collaboration with the Principal Investigators at the Max Planck Institute (MPI) of Neurobiology in Martinsried.
 
Applicants should send their CV and a short research statement to Ms. Irit Dagan (irit.dagan1 at mail.huji.ac.il) and shall solicit three recommendation letters. For further inquiry, please contact Ms. Dagan, Idan Segev (idan at lobster.ls.huji.ac.il) or Haim Sompolinsky (haim at fiz.huji.ac.il).
 
About the Center: The Max Planck Society and the Hebrew University (HU) have established in October 2012, a joint research center for Sensory Processing of the Brain in Action, which supports collaborative research between ELSC and the MPI in Martinsried. The Center's goal is to advance our understanding of the neural mechanisms of sensory processing and behavior. The HU Principal Investigators are: Idan Segev (Director) – sensory processing in dendritic modules, Haim Sompolinsky –theory of neuronal circuits, Adi Mizrahi – sensory coding and plasticity in the mammalian brain. The MPI Principal Investigators are: Tobias Bonhoeffer (Director) – synaptic plasticity in the behaving brain, Alexander Borst – motion processing in the fly visual system, Bert Sakmann – cortical columns in vivo and in silico.
