    >
    >Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position, working with Dr.
    >John Troy, on an NEI funded grant to study neural coding in the cat
    >retina. Our aim is to understand how images are encoded by the array of
    >retinal ganglion cells, using a combination of electrophysiological,
    >anatomical and modeling techniques. Applicants who have experience in
    >single- or multi-unit recording of neurons, mammalian surgical techniques,
    >a quantitative background, computer programming and a background in
    >neuroscience would be especially attractive candidates. Others with
    >experience in anatomy or quantitative methods and a desire to obtain
    >training in electrophysiology would be considered also.
    >
    >Our laboratory is in Northwestern University's engineering school on its
    >Evanston campus. The Evanston campus sits on the shoreline of Lake
    >Michigan, approximately 15 miles north of downtown Chicago.
    >
    >An application should consist of: 1) a statement of your research
    >experience, interests and goals, 2) a curriculum vitae, and 3) the names
