Job Description

A two-year postdoctoral position in computational neuroscience and neural coding is open to investigate the role of hippocampal-dependent memory function in visual perceptual learning. The postdoc will work in Eugenio Piasini's group at the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA), in close collaboration with Manuela Allegra at the Italian National Research Council (CNR). Although this role is focused on a specific project, we are happy to support the development of the postdoc's individual research pursuits.

Requirements

Ideal candidates for this position should have a keen interest in understanding the neural bases of sensory perception
and a strong background in computational neuroscience or in a related discipline (physics
engineering
mathematics
computer science
...). Good statistical and programming skills are important
and familiarity with statistical modeling methods for large scale neural recordings is a plus.
