Prof. John Murray
The Swartz Program for Theoretical Neuroscience at Yale University invites applications for up to two postdoctoral positions in Theoretical and Computational Neuroscience, with flexible start date in 2022. Competitive candidates include those with a strong quantitative background who wish to gain neuroscience research experience. We especially encourage candidates with an interest in collaborating directly with experimental neuroscientists. The candidates will be expected to perform theoretical/computational studies relevant to one or more laboratories of the Swartz Program at Yale and will be encouraged to participate in an expanding quantitative biology environment at Yale.

Dr. HernánLópez-Schier
The López-Schier laboratory is looking for PhD candidates to join a multidisciplinary research project that combines experimental and computational neuroscience. The aim of the project is to understand the neuronal bases of spatial navigation. The project is fully funded and part of a consortium of experimental and theoretical neuroscientists in Germany, France and the USA. We are looking for outstanding, highly motivated and ambitious candidates with a solid background in physics, engineering, computer science, or theoretical neuroscience, and a genuine interest in animal behaviour. The positions are fully funded with ideally start in March-June 2021. You will join a multidisciplinary team at the Helmholtz Zentrum in Neuherberg-Munich, Germany. A good command of the English language is necessary. Other requirements are computer programming skills, and good understanding machine learning and machine vision. The Helmholtz Zentrum München is world-renowned for its fundamental research and is among the top research institutions in the world. Munich is cosmopolitan city with a lively lifestyle and outstanding outdoors. Candidates must send their application including a brief letter of interest, a complete CV, as well as contact information of two or three academic references to Dr. Hernan Lopez-Schier
Yashar Ahmadian
The postdoc will work on a collaborative project between the labs of Yashar Ahmadian at the Computational and Biological Learning Lab (CBL), and Zoe Kourtzi at the Psychology Department, both at the University of Cambridge. The project investigates the computational principles and circuit mechanisms underlying human visual perceptual learning, particularly the role of adaptive changes in the balance of cortical excitation and inhibition resulting from perceptual learning. The postdoc will be based in CBL, with free access to the Kourtzi lab in the Psychology department.
