Connectionists: Postdoc Openings at the University of Vienna in Cognitive Computational Neuroscience and Brain-AI Interfacing

[Moritz Grosse-Wentrup]

Dear all,

We have several postdoc openings in the Research Group Neuroinformatics 
at the University of Vienna. The positions will contribute to our 
research in cognitive computational neuroscience [1] and brain-AI 
interfacing [2], including the development of AI methods for offline and 
online neural decoding. We welcome applicants with a strong background 
in machine learning, computational neuroscience, neural signal 
processing, brain-computer interfaces, or related fields, as 
demonstrated through first-author publications in relevant high-quality 
journals (e.g., PLoS Comp. Bio, JNE, IEEE TBME / TNSRE, etc.) or at top 
conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, etc.).

The initial appointment is for up to two years, with the possibility of 
extension subject to funding and mutual agreement. Salary follows the 
Austrian Universities Collective Bargaining Agreement and depends on 
recognized prior experience; the expected gross annual salary is 
approximately €70,000.

Please send your application in a single PDF (including a cover letter, 
CV incl. a list of publications, and contact information for three 
references) to fsg.neuroinformatics at univie.ac.at. We will start 
screening applications on September 7. The positions will remain open 
until filled. Starting dates are flexible and can be negotiated.

The University of Vienna has an anti-discriminatory employment policy 
and attaches great importance to equal opportunities, the advancement of 
women and diversity. We place special emphasis on increasing the number 
of women in senior and in academic positions. Given equal 
qualifications, preference will be given to female candidates.

For any informal inquiries, please send me an email at 
moritz.grosse-wentrup at univie.ac.at.

Best,
Moritz
