Many thanks for passing this announcement on CVNet....
The Laboratoire de Physiologie de la Perception et de l'Action in Paris is currently seeking applications for a postdoctoral position in visual sciences. This position is opened to students from outside France.
The LPPA is located in the College de France, in the very center of Paris. Its research program is devoted to the physiology of the perception and control of movement (including vestibular, eye movements studies, visual perception, motor control, mental
group of Visual Psychophysics studies the visual perception of motion and 3D shape, with particular emphasis on the integration of multisensory information (related to self-motion for instance). Techniques include fMRI exploration of cortical mechanisms,
experimentation with use of real time simulation of the observer's motion in a visual environment. The group is involved in different European and Human Frontier collaboration projects, as well as in collaborations with neurophysiologists and industry.
The candidate will have the responsability to conduct a research program on 3D vision including psychophysical and fMRI experiments.
Candidates should have a PhD, or expect to receive one before April 1998. They should have a good practice of computer systems, and a motivation for interdisciplinary work. Mathematics, electronics, psychophysics
skills would also be appreciated.
Candidates should send their CV and publications to:
