[visionlist] Postdoctoral position in primate physiology

[Anitha Pasupathy]

A postdoctoral position is available in the Department of Biological 
Structure and the Washington National Primate Research Center, 
University of Washington, Seattle, WA, to work in the lab of Dr. Anitha 
Pasupathy. Work in our lab is focused on the neural basis of visual 
shape representation and recognition. We use single and mutli-electrode 
recordings in primates, psychophysics and computational modeling to 
discover the physiological properties and neural circuits along the 
ventral visual pathway that underlie our ability to perceive and 
recognize objects. The lab is one of several highly collegial and 
interactive groups in the WaNPRC and currently consists of one grad 
student, one postdoc and two techs in addition to the PI.
Candidates with a Ph.D. in the biological sciences or engineering, an 
excellent research record and strong interest in the above research 
focus are encouraged to apply. Experience in extracellular recordings in 
awake and/or anaesthetized animals is a plus. Please send applications 
(short letter of interest, curriculum vitae and the names and addresses 
of two referees), or requests for additional information, to: 
pasupat at u.washington.edu.
