Job Description
The postdoc position is under the joint co-mentoring of Dr. Demian Battaglia and Dr. Romain Goutagny at the University of Strasbourg, France, in the Functional System's Dynamics team – FunSy. The position starts as soon as possible and can last up to two years. The job offer is funded by the French ANR 'HippoComp' project, which focuses on the complexity of hippocampal oscillations and the hypothesis that such complexity can serve as a computational resource. The team performs electrophysiological recordings in the hippocampus and cortex during spatial navigation and memory tasks in mice (wild type and mutant developing various neuropathologies) and have access to vast data through local and international cooperation. They use a large spectrum of computational tools ranging from time-series and network analyses, information theory, and machine-learning to multi-scale computational modeling.
Requirements
- Candidates should have main expertise in either computational or experimental neuroscience. Computational project components would deal with numerically-intensive data analyses (dimensional reduction
- encoding/decoding
- design of discriminative features). Experimental project components would focus primarily on simultaneous fiber photometry and local-fields potentials recordings
- together with the pre-processing of these data. Interested candidates could have hybrid experimental/computational projects. The ideal candidate will have a doctorate in systems or computational neuroscience
- with previous experience in the analysis of rich datasets. In addition
- we expect programming skills (e.g.
- Python
- C/C++
- Matlab)
- good communication skills in English (oral and written)
- the ability to work well in an international team
- curiosity and open-mindedness.
