Electrophysiological Recordings

Prof. Dr. Sonja Grün

At the Institute of Advanced Simulation (IAS-6) at the Research Center Juelich a PhD position is available in the field of Computational Neuroscience to investigate cross-area interactions in the visuo-motor pathway of non-human primates during a visually guided motor task. The data are provided by our experimental partners at INT, CNRS, Marseille. Simultaneous electrophysiological recordings by multiple Utah electrode arrays implanted in V1, V2, V4, 7a, DP and M1 will be studied driven by predictions from theory and network modeling to gain a mechanistic understanding of cross-area interaction signatures. The project is embedded in the interdisciplinary work program of the IAS-6 (www.csn.fz-juelich.de) with experts from network modeling, analytical theory, data analytics, AI and neuromorphic computing.
