Scholarship International

Postdoctoral Scholarships – Visual Neuroscience

A postdoctoral Scholarship 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 bothcats 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:
