Job Description

A postdoc position is available under the shared supervision of Prof. Maxime Baud and Dr. Timothée Proix, who both specialize in quantitative neuroscience research. Together, they are running a three-year clinical trial involving patients with epilepsy who received a minimally invasive EEG device beneath the scalp for the chronic recording (months) of brain signals during wake and sleep. The postdoc will help with the analysis of massive amounts of EEG data, with a desire to build forecasting algorithms aiming at estimating the risk of seizures 24 hours in advance. The project lies at the interface between machine learning and EEG data analysis. The goal of the project is to develop machine learning algorithms to forecast seizures.

Requirements

  • Applicant should hold a PhD in any engineering field
  • physics
  • or neuroscience and have published scientific literature as a first author. Strong abilities in computer programming (Matlab and/or Python). Prior experience with machine learning methods
  • signal analysis and advanced data analysis techniques applied to neural timeseries (EEG > fMRI). Strong interpersonal communication skills in English and good written English. Preferred qualifications include hands-on experience in human electrophysiology recordings and experience with deep-learning
  • machine-learning or statistical model development.
