[Comp-neuro] Research Post available at Intelligent Systems Research Centre, University of Ulster, UK

Funding has been secured for a 6-month Research post to work on the development of a computational algorithm to test a novel brain inspired self-repairing concept developed at the University of Ulster in collaboration with the University of Liverpool. Specifically, the Research Associate will work on the development of a computer model of the self-repairing Spiking Neural Network (SNN) at the University of Ulster and will assist in how to translate the self-repairing capability to hardware. The Research Associate will be employed by Ulster for the duration of the project (6 months).

 

Applicants must have postgraduate research experience in a relevant area (e.g. Computer Science/Mathematics/Neuroscience), together with evidence of ability to develop computational biological models.

 

Deadline for applications is Feb 12th.
