[AUDITORY] computational neuroscience phd opportunities with Dan Goodman, Imperial College (Dan Goodman )

Subject: [AUDITORY] computational neuroscience phd opportunities with Dan Goodman, Imperial College From: Dan Goodman <d.goodman@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2020 17:11:38 +0100 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------0A2C56C5F2A2CEAC1396A768 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit One or more PhD positions in theoretical and computational neuroscience are available in the group of Dan Goodman at Imperial College London. I am interested in supervising students with a strong mathematical, computational or neuroscience background. There is no deadline, and applications will be considered as they arrive, but earlier applications typically have a higher chance of getting a funded place, and EU applicants in particular should apply immediately (see note below). At the moment, the main research direction in the group is in applying methods from machine learning to models with a more biological flavour than the artificial neural networks typically studied in machine learning. This could include neurons with temporal dynamics, spiking neurons, etc. The aim is to use machine learning methods to find biologically relevant insights. To get a feel for this sort of work, you might be interested in seeing some of the recorded talks <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SrEycIbfRE&list=PL09WqqDbQWHFvM9DFYkM_GfnrVnIdLRhy> from a recent workshop I organised. However, our group has a fairly diverse range of interests and I am very happy to receive applications on a wider variety of topics than this (including theory of neural processing, auditory and other sensory systems, and simulation and data analysis). If you are interested in applying, please see the detailed instructions on my website: http://neural-reckoning.org/openings.html <http://neural-reckoning.org/openings.html> *Note on Brexit.* EU students starting a PhD in 2020-21 will still have the right to study in the UK, and be eligible for UK fee status and for financial support for the full duration of their course. However, the last opportunity for a funded place starting in the 2020-21 academic year will be a funding panel to take place in late October 2020, so EU candidates should get applications in as soon as possible, and please include a note in your email to me to make clear you are an EU candidate.
