A postdoctoral position is available to study mechanisms for visual object
segmentation in the awake rodent in the Tsao lab at Caltech.  How does the
brain dynamically link all the pixels belonging to a persistent visual
object over space and time? We hypothesize that this is a fundamental
function of rodent vision, and we want to apply the full arsenal of rodent
neural circuit dissection tools including two-photon imaging and
electrophysiology to understand the underlying mechanisms.  Candidates
should have a PhD in Neuroscience or related discipline, be highly
motivated, have strong quantitative skills, and work well with others.
Experience with two photon imaging and/or electrophysiology in rodents is
especially welcome. Applicants should send a letter of interest and CV to
Doris Tsao (dortsao at caltech.edu).
