[Caspar M. Schwiedrzik]

The European Neuroscience Institute is looking to fill the position of a
data analyst (full time). We are looking for a data analyst with interest
and experience in systems neuroscience. Research at the European
Neuroscience Institute ranges from molecular biology to human psychophysics
and involves a range of model organisms (from drosophila to non-human
primates), as well as techniques and approaches (electrophysiology,
two-photon imaging, fMRI, EEG, behavior). The data analyst is expected to
work closely with all of the research groups at the European Neuroscience
Institute, supporting research efforts, e.g. through modelling and
statistical analyses of high-dimensional data, image processing, and
programming/development of experiments including the opportunity to develop
and publish, e.g. analytical tools that arise from this work.

   - The applicant should possess a university degree (minimum M. Sc. or
   equivalent) in a relevant field, e.g., statistics, biostatistics,
   informatics, or similar. Prior experience in the field of systems
   neuroscience is highly desired.
   - The applicant should have experience in a research setting utilizing
   quantitative methods and statistics. The applicant should also demonstrate
   strong analytical skills. Knowledge of novel and emerging analysis
   techniques is highly desirable. Future/forward thinking in the area of big
   data analytics/informatics and applying them to contribute to the research
   groups’ scientific process is expected.
   - The applicant should be skilled in the analysis of multivariate
   datasets to reveal patterns and build models; conduct exploratory data
   analysis, and communicate with team lead/team members; identify
   improvements for existing data management and recommend requirements for
   new systems.
   - In addition, contribute to replicability by making suggestions for
   existing data management and recommend requirements for new systems and
   identify potential data integrity issues. We are committed to open
   data/open science and appreciate interest and expertise in this area.
   - Utilize programming languages such as Python, Matlab and/or C++.
   - A good command of English is mandatory.
