Connectionists: Postdoctoral Scholar in Computational/Theoretical Neuroscience (Western University)

[Lyle Muller]

The lab of Lyle Muller (http://mullerlab.ca) at the Department of Mathematics and the Western Institute for Neuroscience (Western University, London, Ontario) has an open postdoctoral position in computational and theoretical neuroscience.

This scientist will work with an international NeuroNex consortium (http://nxwm.io) studying the transcriptomic, cellular, and network basis of working memory. The project will incorporate analysis of multichannel neural data and computational models ranging from single neurons to spiking neural networks and machine learning algorithms. The researcher will work within a dynamic team and with data at multiple scales (transcriptomics, intracellular patch clamp, and extracellular spiking data).

Research in this project utilizes a combination of large-scale numerical simulations, supervised/unsupervised learning, and analytical approaches. Prior experience with scientific computing languages (MATLAB, Julia, or Python) and/or low-level programming (C/C++) is preferred. Prior experience with computational modeling, signal processing, or random graph theory is also preferred.

Western University offers an excellent research environment and support. Both our group and the University are deeply committed to fostering diversity in the sciences, and applications from underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged. Interested candidates can write to lmuller2 at uwo.ca<mailto:lmuller2 at uwo.ca> with a CV and statement of interest. Review of applications will begin on 18 April 2022.
