Prof Grace Lindsay
The Lindsay Lab is looking for a post-doc to work on either of the first two research directions listed here: https://lindsay-lab.github.io/research/ (i.e. modeling attention with artificial neural networks or using ANNs to test methods from neuroscience). The post is funded for two years.
Prof Chengcheng Huang
The neural dynamics and computation group of Dr. Chengcheng Huang at the University of Pittsburgh has a postdoctoral position available. The Huang group investigates the nervous system using computational modeling and mathematical analysis of neural networks. We develop theoretical approaches to understanding circuit dynamics and information processing in sensory systems. We are interested in how different task and stimulus contexts change neuronal responses and the implications on neural coding, with an emphasis on neural variability. Potential projects include 1) the functional roles of interneuron subtypes in sensory and associative cortex, 2) attentional modulation on information flow and 3) interareal communication with feedforward and feedback connections. The candidate will have the opportunity to work with our experimental collaborators at the University of Pittsburgh.
Axel Hutt
The new research team NECTARINE at INRIA in Strasbourg / France aims to create a synergy between clinicians and scientists to develop new healthcare technologies. The team researchers collaborate closely with clinicians and choose their research focus along the clinical applications. Major scientific objectives are the development of advanced online- and offline simulations of neural activity on the macroscopic scale involving new numerical techniques for real-time computation and data-driven simulation dedicated to patient-specific modelling. The specific focus of the team's research is general anaesthesia, description of consciousness and attention and neurostimulation of patients suffering from mental disorders.
Laurent Perrinet
This PhD subject focuses on the association between attention and spiking neural networks for defining new efficient AI models for embedded systems such as drones, robots and more generally autonomous systems. The thesis will take place between the LEAT research lab in Sophia-Antipolis and the INT institute in Marseille which both develop complementary approaches on bio-inspired AI from neuroscience to embedded systems design.
