POSTDOCTORAL POSITIONS AVAILABLE
in Computation / Neurophysiology
Retina Group
Department of Neuroscience
University of Pennsylvania
Two postdoctoral postions are open in the Retina Group at the
University of Pennsylvania to study synaptic physiology and
information-processing of neural circuits in mammalian retina.
Facilities are available for patch-clamping in retinal slices and
for sharp electrode recording in vitro from neurons in the intact
retina while presenting sophisticated visual stimuli. Results
from these approaches, together with synaptic and neurochemical
studies, are integrated into computational models to understand
principles of neural coding and the limits of circuit
performance.
The postdoctoral fellows will collaborate with other members of
the group and may undertake projects in computation, physiology,
or both. The candidates should have experience in retinal
circuitry, synaptic physiology and/or computational neuroscience.
The positions are available starting in December, 2001 with salary
commensurate with experience. Applicants should submit CV and
references to:
