Applications are invited for a PhD or post-doc position at the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies (FIAS) to develop neural network-based computational models of active auditory perception. The project will address how the brain adapts sensory coding strategies, attentional processing, and behavior to optimize active auditory perception in its recurrent processing architecture. The project is part of Germany’s priority program 'Sensing LOOPS: Cortico-subcortical Interactions for Adaptive Sensing' and offers opportunities for collaboration with experimental labs, including the lab of Julio Hechavarrria in Frankfurt.
