[Comp-neuro] PhD position on models of decision making in Bristol

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to let you know about a fully funded 3-year
interdisciplinary PhD studentship on computational models of decision
making at the University of Bristol.

The student will be based in Bristol University's interdisciplinary
centre for research into /Decision Making in an Unstable World
/(http://www.bristol.ac.uk/decisions-research/). The centre currently
has 2 postdoctoral researchers and 4 PhD students, runs a wide variety
of topic focused seminars and workshops, and offers a range of exciting
collaborative opportunities. The research team is located in a
newly-refurbished dedicated space.

Applications are welcomed from UK/EU students who are enthusiastic and
highly-motivated who possess, or will shortly obtain, a first or upper
second class degree, or equivalent, in a numerate subject from across
the Mathematical, Natural and Engineering Sciences (for example
Mathematics, Computer Science, Statistics or Physics). Applicants must
demonstrate a strong desire to be part of an interdisciplinary research
team that combines mathematical and computational modelling with
experimental research on humans. Successful applicants will receive an
EPSRC 3-year studentship covering living expenses and fees.

For further information, please visit
http://www.bristol.ac.uk/decisions-research/. Informal enquiries are
very welcome and should be made to Dr David Leslie
(david.leslie@bristol.ac.uk <mailto:david.leslie@bristol.ac.uk>) or Prof
Iain Gilchrist (i.d.gilchrist@bristol.ac.uk
<mailto:i.d.gilchrist@bristol.ac.uk>). Information about postgraduate
study at the university, including the application procedure, is
available at http://www.bris.ac.uk/prospectus/postgraduate/. Please
select 'Mathematics (PhD)' and indicate that that you are responding to
the "Inter-disciplinary decision-making studentship advertisement" in
the Research Details and Funding sections of the form.

We will carry out interviews and hope to appoint to this studentship as
soon as possible.

*The closing date for applications is 9am on the 1^st October 2012.

Best wishes,

Rafal
