Postdoctoral position in Visual Neuroscience, USA

Postdoctoral position – Visual Neuroscience

A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the lab of  Dr. Charles Gray in the Center for Computational Biology at  Montana State University, Bozeman. The project is investigating  the dynamics of population activity and inter-laminar neuronal  interactions in the visual cortex during the processing of natural  scenes. Electrophysiological studies are being done in both  cats and monkeys and utilize state-of-the-art ensemble recording  techniques to sample neuronal activity simultaneously from all  cortical layers. The project is an NEI-funded collaboration with  Dr. Bruno Olshausen at UC Berkeley and Dr. Chris Rozell at the  Georgia Institute of Technology which will combine experimental
and theoretical approaches to elucidate dynamics of visual cortical  function. Candidates should have a strong background in  electrophysiological methods and statistical analysis of time series  data.

Please send curriculum vitae and the names and contact  information of three references to:
