Research Fellow (Training Fellow in Theoretical Neuroscience)

We are now inviting applications for a post-doctoral training Fellowship under the guidance of Dr Agostina Palmigiano, focussed on developing theoretical approaches to investigate the mechanisms underlying sensory, motor or cognitive computations.

You will be responsible for the primary execution of the project (with opportunities for co-supervision of students), presentation of results at conferences and seminars, and publication in suitable media.

This post is funded for 3 years.

A job description and person specification can be accessed at the bottom of this page.

You should have a strong quantitative background in theoretical neuroscience, machine learning, statistics, computer science, physics or engineering; a record of publication in highly respected journals and conferences and must hold a PhD in a relevant field by the agreed start date of the position.

To apply, please submit your CV and in the Attachments section (Research Paper 1) a statement covering research accomplishments and the names of 2 referees. There is no requirement to upload any papers you have authored. Academic enquiries about the role should be directed to Agostina Palmigiano (a.palmigiano@ucl.ac.uk).

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled. Early applications are strongly encouraged, as this ensures they will receive full consideration.
