Connectionists: PhD studentship in Computational Visual Neuroscience – How Specific Classes of Retinal Cells Contribute to Vision: a Computational Model

[Bruno Cessac]

PhD studentship in Computational Visual Neuroscience – How Specific Classes of Retinal Cells Contribute to Vision: a Computational Model 

The studentship is part of a new interdisciplinary project funded by the Leverhulme Trust to investigate how different groups of retinal cells contribute to the encoding of visual scenes. It is at the interface between experimental neuroscience (Institute of Neuroscience in Newcastle University, UK, E. Sernagor’s lab http://www.ncl.ac.uk/ion/ ) and computational neuroscience (B. Cessac’s lab, INRIA, Sophia Antipolis, France; https://team.inria.fr/biovision/ ). The studentship is for three years, starting in October 2017. It covers student fees and maintenance as well as funds for travelling between the two teams and conference expenses. 

The detailed proposition can be found here https://team.inria.fr/biovision/files/2017/04/20170418-phd-cessac.pdf
