[visionlist] Postdoc at UC Davis: Neurophysiology of flexible decision making

[Jochen Ditterich]

A Postdoctoral position is available (effective November 2012) in the 
laboratory of Dr. Jochen Ditterich at the Center for Neuroscience, 
University of California, Davis, for studying the neural mechanisms of 
flexible decision making.
The successful candidate will be responsible for performing experiments 
involving simultaneous extracellular recordings from multiple cortical 
areas and for analyzing the obtained behavioral and neurophysiological 
data. The candidate will further be involved in the presentation and 
publication of the results. Candidates should hold a Ph.D. in 
Neuroscience, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline and be 
proficient in spoken and written English. Prior experience in systems 
neuroscience research, in particular in vivo extracellular recordings, 
and programming experience (MATLAB, in particular) would be valuable.
Please send application with CV, publication list, contact information
