POST-DOCTORAL POSITION: NEUROPHYSIOLOGY OF VISUAL AND SELF MOTION,
Washinton Univiversity School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO
A postdoctoral position is available to study the role of
occipito-parietal cortex in motion processing. The main goal of the
project is to identify and characterize cortical areas that are involved
in the processing and perception of self-motion vs. visual motion.
Experiments will be performed using non-human primates in a collaboration
between the labs of Dr. Dora Angelaki and Dr. Greg DeAngelis at Washinton
University School of Medicine. Single and multiple unit neurophysiology,
chemical inactivation, electrical microstimulation, and fMRI are all
techniques available to address the problem. Excellent facilities for
visual and vestibular stimulation are available. The applicant is
expected to have a Ph.D. in neuroscience, psychology, computer vision or a
related field. Previous experience working in the visual system would be
an important asset. Computer programming and quantitative analysis skills
are highly desirable, with experience in C++ and/or Matlab being most
relevant.
Interested applicants should send a CV and names of 3 references to: Drs.
Dora Angelaki or Greg DeAngelis, Dept. of Neurobiology, Washington Univ.
School of Medicine, Box 8108, 660 S. Euclid Ave, St. Louis MO 63110-1093,
USA. Phone: (314) 747-5529. Fax: (314) 747-4370. Email:
angelaki@pcg.wustl.edu or gregd@cabernet.wustl.edu
