Please, bring this to attention of potential candidates
----------
1. W3-Professorship "Systems Neurobiology" at the Werner Reichardt
Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (CIN) in Tübingen
The Werner Reichardt Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (CIN) is an
interdisciplinary institution at the Eberhard Karls University Tübingen
funded by the German Excellence Initiative program. The CIN strives to
deepen our understanding of how the brain generates function and how
brain diseases impair functions. It tries to make use of newly acquired
insights to help people with brain disorders and to launch new mind- and
brain-inspired applications in many areas of engineering and computer
science.
The new professor is expected to direct innovative research on
subcortical systems and cortico-subcortical interactions. Possible, but
not exclusive, research areas are the functional role of the basal
ganglia, the spinal cord, the vestibular system or the
cortical-subcortical underpinnings of motor control. Candidates for
professorships should have a long-standing experience in
interdisciplinary research in the respective area. The candidate should
have a proven track record of international excellence and external
grant funding and be willing to contribute to research oriented training
in the neurosciences at University of Tübingen. The new CIN professor
will be a member of the Faculty of Science (Department of Biology). The
position is tenured.
According to German law, disabled persons with equal occupational
aptitude will be given preferred consideration. The University of
Tübingen and CIN strive to promote equal opportunities in science and is
committed to increasing the percentage of female scientists in teaching
and research. Qualified female candidates are strongly encouraged to
apply. Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, pdf files of up to 5
key publications, statements of research achievements and future
directions together by February 26th, 2013 to the Dean of the Faculty of
Science, Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Rosenstiel, at dekanat@mnf.uni-tuebingen.de.

2. Junior Research Group for Neuroscientists at the Werner Reichardt
Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (CIN) in Tübingen
The Werner Reichardt Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (CIN) is an
interdisciplinary institution at the Eberhard Karls University Tübingen
funded by the German Excellence Initiative program. The CIN strives to
deepen our understanding of how the brain generates function and how
brain diseases impair functions. It tries to make use of newly acquired
insights to help people with brain disorders and to launch new mind- and
brain-inspired applications in many areas of engineering and computer
science. Its scientific program is guided by the conviction that
progress in the understanding of brain function can only be achieved by
an integrative approach spanning multiple levels of organization and
pooling the knowledge of researchers from many different fields.
The CIN is offering a junior group leader (JRG) position with tenure
track option for up-and-coming young scientists with a promising track
record in any area of the neurosciences. Since the CIN strives to
increase the number of women scientists, topics well represented by
qualified female candidates will be preferred. Hence we explicitly
encourage female candidates to apply. Submission deadline is February
15th 2013.
Framework
The intended duration of the position is for 5 years with evaluations by
external experts at regular intervals. In the event of positive
evaluations after 3 years, the JRG will obtain a tenure track option,
which may ultimately lead to a professorship at the University of
Tübingen. Start-up funds as well as substantial funding for personnel
and running costs will be available, but will depend on the applicant's
qualifications and prior experience. Appointees will be full members of
and active participants in the CIN, which will also provide laboratory
and/or office space. The JRG leader will be provided with opportunities
to contribute to research oriented training within the framework of the
CIN Graduate Training Centre and the faculties involved in the CIN will
provide opportunities for the German Habilitation according to
established rules, if desired. According to German law, severely
disabled persons with equal occupational aptitude will be given
preferential consideration.
Application
Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, pdf files of up to 5 key
publications, a statement of research achievements and future directions
(not to exceed 3 pages) as well as the names and addresses of at least
three referees. All documents should be submitted electronically to the
Chairman of the Werner Reichardt Centre for Integrative Neuroscience
Tübingen, Prof. Dr. Peter Thier, at cin@uni-tuebingen.de. For further
information on the CIN see: http://www.cin.uni-tuebingen.de/.

In order to strengthen research on technical applications the CIN offers
a junior group leader (JRG) position with tenure track option for
up-and-coming young scientists with a promising track record, working in
different fields of Neurotechnology. This might include fields such as:
• Brain machine interfaces, brain computer interfaces and neurorobotics
• Technology for sensory or motor neuroprostheses • Rehabilitation
technology • Brain-inspired user interfaces and computing technology
We welcome additional proposals in other fields of neurotechnology. The
CIN strives to increase the number of female scientists. Therefore
qualified female candidates are explicitly
encouraged to apply. Submission deadline is February 15th 2013
