[Comp-neuro] Brown University -- Tenure Track Position in Computational Neuroscience

The Brown University Department of Neuroscience invites applications
for a tenure-track position as Assistant Professor in the area of
computational neuroscience. This appointment will be made in
conjunction with the interdepartmental Brown Institute for Brain
Science as part of an expansion that includes seven new faculty
positions. Candidates should have a Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent degree,
postdoctoral research experience, and a record of research excellence.
We strongly encourage applications from women and minorities.
Applicants should be developing and using computational approaches to
address fundamental issues of neural information processing. We
encourage applications from candidates whose research can yield
insight into neurologic or psychiatric disorders. The successful
applicant will bridge areas of research strength within the Brown
Brain Science community and work collaboratively with engineers,
clinicians, mathematicians, computer scientists, and neuroscientists.
The applicant is expected to establish an independent research program
supported by external funds and will teach undergraduate, graduate,
and/or medical students. The appointment will be in the Department of
Neuroscience, with the possibility of a secondary appointment in
another Institute-affiliated department.

The search committee will give first consideration to applications
received by April 27, 2012. Applicants should submit a pdf version of
their curriculum vitae, research and teaching statements, and three
representative publications. They should also request that three
letters of recommendations be sent electronically to
compneurosearch@brown.edu.
