[Comp-neuro] Postdoctoral position at University of Manchester, Faculty of Life Sciences

A 4 year postdoctoral researcher position is available now in the lab
of Dr Mark Humphries in the Faculty of Life Science, University of
Manchester

The researcher will join a newly established lab group that tackles
the challenging problems of how to make sense of the deluge of
circuit-wide neural activity data, from cortical cell assemblies to
invertebrate central pattern generators. They will develop
cutting-edge analysis and data-mining techniques for multi-neuron
recording and apply those techniques to analyse and interpret
experimental data from collaborators across Europe and the USA. [For
background on the methodology see: Humphries (2011) Spike-train
communities: finding groups of similar spike-trains. J Neurosci, 31,
2321-2336]

The ideal candidate will hold a PhD in a related discipline (e.g.
mathematics, physics, engineering, computer science, or computational
neuroscience), have good programming skills and experience in either
neurophysiological data analysis or network theory.
