 The Departments of Biology and Mathematics and the Institute of
Neuroscience at the University of Oregon announce a tenure track faculty
position in computational neuroscience at the rank of assistant professor
with ultimate department and institute affiliations flexible. Theorists
seeking synergistic interactions with experimentalists in design, analysis
and interpretation of research linking gene function, neuronal activity and
behavior in model organisms and humans are especially encouraged to apply.
This new position is part of an integrated effort to strengthen research at
the nexus of mathematics and biology at the University of Oregon.  It also
advances a broader “Neurons to Minds” initiative that includes multiple new
positions in systems and cognitive neuroscience to accelerate discovery in
the neuronal basis of behavior and cognition.


 Minimum qualifications for candidates are a Ph.D. in an appropriate field
(e.g. neuroscience, biology, mathematics, physics, electrical engineering,
statistics, computer science, etc.), commitment to excellent teaching at
the undergraduate and graduate levels, and an outstanding research record.
Candidates should have the ability to work effectively within a diverse
community.  Applications will be received online at
https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/UO/IONMATHBIO.  Candidates are asked to
submit a cover letter, a curriculum vitae including a publication list, a
statement of research accomplishments and future research plans, a
description of teaching experience and philosophy, and three letters of
recommendation (sent independently).  Submission of 1-3 selected reprints
is encouraged.  To be assured of consideration, application materials
should be uploaded by *November 15, 2016, but the position will remain open
until filled*.  Requests for information can be sent to Dr. Shawn Lockery,
Chair, Computational Neuroscience Search Committee (shawn at uoregon.edu).
