Postdoctoral Position in Neurobiology. A postdoctoral position (BAT IIa) is
immediately available at the Lehrstuhl fuer Zoologie/Tierphysiologie of the
RWTH Aachen. It is expected that the successful candidate develops her or his
research program in the field of "acoustic motion detection" within the newly
formed Schwerpunktprogramm of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft "Zeitgebun-
dene Verarbeitung im zentralen akustischen System". We have taken a model-based
approach to study the neural basis of acoustic motion in the midbrain of the
barn owl (Wagner and Takahashi, J. Neurophysiol. 68: 2063 (1992), Wagner
et al., J. Neurophysiol. 71: 1907 (1994), Wagner et al. TINS 20: 585 (1997),
Kautz and Wagner, J. Neurophysiol. To appear 6/98, see also our homepage on
the internet (http://birdland.bio2.rwth-aachen.de). Now we want to extend our
studies to forebrain pathways. The research should include a combination of
neurophysiological and theoretical projects. Therefore, expertise in extra-
cellular neurophysiology would be helpful as well as programming skills in C.
At the moment, financial support for two years is available. In case
of success, this period may be extended to 6 years with the possibility of
submitting a Habilitation. Send inquiries and applications with CV, two
letters of reference and relevant reprints to
