Connectionists: Academic Fellowship positions Computational Neuroscience, Nottingham

[Mark van Rossum]

Academic Fellowship positions Computational Neuroscience, Nottingham
(extended deadline)

The University of Nottingham is a research intensive university ranked 
in the top 10 in the UK and in the top 30 of Europe. It has a strong 
tradition in Cognition, Perception, Mathematical Biology, and Imaging. 
To support further development across these areas, and stimulate new 
research opportunities, the University has recently made a major 
investment in Computational Neuroscience.

As part of this investment we are inviting applications for two 
independent fellowships. The positions are for 3 years, after which the 
fellows are expected to be competitive candidates for permanent 
positions at the University. The positions are ideal for researchers 
with some postdoctoral experience and a strong vision who are planning 
to develop their own research group in a supportive, interdisciplinary 
environment with outstanding research facilities.

We are interested in candidates working across a broad spectrum of 
research topics areas in Computational Neuroscience, including 
functional neuroimaging, neural networks, and models of cognition. 
Research methodologies could include numerical simulation, machine 
learning, theoretical neuroscience, and innovative data analysis. The 
Fellows will be based in the School of Psychology and/or Mathematical 
Sciences.

These positions were advertised earlier. After a number of requests for 
a later deadline, the application process is now briefly opened again 
until Sept 3rd.
