[visionlist] Postdoctoral positions to study "Anatomy and neuropharmacology of top-down control" in visual, parietal and frontal cortex (A. Thiele, Newcastle Unversity).

[Alexander Thiele]

2 postdoctoral positions (tenable for 4 years) funded by the BBSRC are
available in the lab of A. Thiele (Newcastle University).
You will employ electrophysiological, neuropharmacological and
psychophysical techniques in macaques performing attention demanding
detection and discrimination tasks. The work focuses on investigating
the sources of attentional control, how these interact with processing
in sensory areas, and the neuropharmacology involved.
You should be enthusiastic about this type of research, have experience
in training animals in attention demanding tasks, experience in
electrophysiology, and good programming skills (Matlab, C/C++).
