Connectionists: Post-doctoral posts in England / Germany...

[John Spencer (PSY - Staff)]

Three year postdoctoral positions in England / Germany

Profs. John Spencer and Gregor Schoener are looking for two postdoctoral candidates to work on a joint project funded by the Leverhulme Trust. The goal of the project is to construct a theory that explains how the brain flexibly integrates lower-level processes with higher-level language and executive functions. The project will use the framework of Dynamic Field Theory (www.dynamicfieldtheory.org<http://www.dynamicfieldtheory.org>) to both simulate human behaviours and embody the theory on an autonomous robot to explore application to real-world scenarios.

One postdoctoral fellow will be housed in the School of Psychology at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, UK. The other fellow will be housed at the Institute for Neurocomputing at the Ruhr University in Bochum, Germany. Details can be found here:
