[visionlist] Visual attention postdoctoral opportunity in Boston

[Todd S. Horowitz]

Visual attention postdoctoral opportunity in Boston

The Visual Attention Laboratory at Brigham & Women's Hospital is 
planning to hire one or more post-doctoral fellows starting 
summer/fall 2007, pending funding approval. The laboratory is located 
in Cambridge, MA, near the MIT campus. We are affiliated with the 
Harvard Medical School Department of Ophthalmology.

Our research interests are lie in the study of visual attention, 
including visual search and multiple object tracking. We combine 
basic research using behavioral methods with applications to problems 
in areas such as airport security and medical screening. The rich 
concentration of researchers in the Cambridge/Boston area means that 
there are opportunities for collaboration with a wide variety of 
other laboratories using many methodologies at Harvard, MIT, Boston 
University, and so forth.

Interested candidates should send a CV and a list of two or three 
qualified referees. In addition, we expect that the successful 
candidate will also apply for an individual post-doctoral fellowship. 
Therefore, a useful cover letter would not only explain why you want 
to come work in our lab but would also outline a potential project 
you would like to carry out with us, which could serve as the basis 
for a post-doctoral fellowship application

Further information about the laboratory and the Principal 
Investigators is available on our website:

A list of our recent publications can be found at

Inquiries should be sent to one or both of the PIs:
Todd Horowitz (toddh at search.bwh.harvard.edu)
Jeremy Wolfe (wolfe at search.bwh.harvard.edu).
