POST-DOC IN VISUAL PSYCHOPHYSICS: UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, DAVIS

Applications are invited for a post-doctoral research associate to  
collaborate on experimental and theoretical research concerning the  
optical and neural factors contributing to age-related changes in  
human color and spatial vision. The exact project will depend on the  
interests and experience of the successful applicant.

The position is funded for two years, renewable on a yearly basis  
given adequate progress. The laboratory is well equipped for research  
involving both Maxwellian-view optical systems and/or CRT-based  
stimulus presentations (Macintosh and Cambridge VSG generators)  
needed for psychophysical and electrophysiological research. We also  
have unique resources for imaging of the retina in vivo using  
adaptive optics and/or OCT.  Further details about the laboratory may  
be found at the url below.

The laboratory is located in the Department of Ophthalmology of the  
UC-Davis Medical Center (Sacramento) and has close affiliations with  
the nearby Center for Neuroscience (Davis). UC-Davis has a large,  
active community of vision scientists with interests ranging from  
molecular to clinical issues.

Davis is a friendly, safe, medium-sized college town close to the  
cultural attractions of San Francisc and the recreational attractions  
of the Napa Valley, Yosemite and Pacific coast beaches.


A Ph.D. or comparable advanced degree in any area is required.  
Applicants should have a strong background in vision science. Comfort  
with computer programming and computational modeling is highly  
desirable. US citizenship is not required.  We value intellectual,  
ethnic and geographic diversity. Minorities, women, veterans and  
persons with disabilities are encouraged to apply.


The starting time is relatively flexible and the position will remain  
open until filled. Salary is based on experience and follows UC Davis  
guidelines.

Inquires by e-mail (jswerner at ucdavis.edu) are welcome before formal  
application.  An application requires a vita, reprints/prepints and  
the names of 3 references.
