POSTDOCTORAL POSITION in
NONLINEAR DYNAMICS of MUSIC and AUDITORY PERCEPTION

Center for Complex Systems and Brain Sciences
Florida Atlantic University

Our music and auditory dynamics laboratory seeks a postdoctoral  
research associate to work on dynamical systems modeling of auditory  
perceptual processes. We use the most advanced mathematical  
techniques to model auditory and music perception (see http:// 
www.ccs.fau.edu).  The postdoc will coordinate all aspects of this  
project, including:
* analysis and development of nonlinear dynamical models of perception
* development of MATLAB toolbox for auditory modeling
* evaluation of model predictions; comparison with perceptual and  
neural data
* preparation of journal articles, grants, and presentations
* collaboration with industrial research partners

Qualifications:
* Knowledge of nonlinear dynamical systems required
* Advanced degree in Physics or Mathematics strongly preferred
* Knowledge of auditory perception and/or neuroscience preferred
* Strong interpersonal and communication skills, both verbal and written
* Computer programming experience required
* MATLAB expertise preferred
* Recent PhD graduate

Postdoctoral position pays NIH scale, starting at $36,996.  Open  
immediately, with preferred start date 15 Oct 2007 or earlier.
