[visionlist] postdoc position at Michigan State University

[Taosheng Liu]

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in Dr. Taosheng 
Liu's lab at Michigan State University. We are seeking highly qualified 
individuals to collaborate on projects investigating the neural 
mechanisms of attentional control, both in terms of the neuroanatomic 
basis of the control signal and how attention modulates perceptual 
representations. The main experimental approach includes visual 
psychophysics, fMRI, and computational modeling. The candidate should 
have a recent Ph.D. in a relevant field (e.g., Psychology, Neuroscience, 
Computer Science) and shared interests in the core research area. A 
research background in perception and attention is ideal. Proficiency in 
programming is necessary (e.g., Matlab, Python, C/C++), and computing 
experience on the GNU/Linux platform is useful. Experience with fMRI is 
highly desirable but not required (experience with other techniques such 
as EEG/ERP, TMS, is also welcome). The successful candidate will have 
the opportunity to initiate new projects.


The position is available immediately, with a preferred starting date 
before September 1, 2013. The initial appointment is one year with the 
opportunity of renewal for additional years. Review of candidates will 
start May 15, 2013 and will continue until the position is filled. 
Informal inquiry is welcome via email to _tsliu at msu.edu 
<mailto:tsliu at msu.edu>_. Application should include a CV, a brief 
statement of research interests, the expected date of availability, and 
the names and contact of three referees. To apply, go to
