POSTDOCTORAL AND RESEARCH ASSISTANT
POSITIONS Postdoctoral and research assistant
positions are available immediately
to study spatial processing in the auditory and visual systems
of the brain. Our work
focuses on general principles
underlying neural representations, and is “compumental” in
flavor – computation
+ experiment in hopes of understanding our mental life. Recent
discoveries include evidence for time-division
multiplexing in the brain, an important finding that
suggests how the brain
might represent multiple stimuli at once, and our finding that
the eardrums move
when the eyes move – a finding
we think of as indicating there is no unisensory “safe space”
in the brain –
the senses interact with each other everywhere it is possible
to do so. A strong quantitative background is
essential for positions
at either level. For
postdoctoral
applicants, experience in neurophysiology, animal training,
and/or auditory
psychophysics is preferred. For
research
assistant applicants, this position can serve as a bridge
between undergraduate
and graduate or medical school; initial appointment will be
for one year with
the expectation of being renewed for additional years. For further information on current
projects, please see www.duke.edu/~jmgroh
as well as the
pre-print server biorxiv. To
apply,
please email plain text cover letter including the names of
2-3 references and
CV to jmgroh@xxxxxxxx. Posted by:
