Chelazzi’s lab at the University of Verona, beginning in early spring 2009
(two-years duration, renewable). One position is reserved for someone to be
fully in charge of a <STRONG>newly established TMS unit</STRONG>; the other is
for someone to carry out <STRONG>single-unit recording experiments with behaving
macaques</STRONG>. The successful candidates will have the opportunity to
investigate the brain mechanisms of visual selective attention and the complex
interplay between selective attention and other cognitive functions, such as
learning and memory, motivation and decision making (</FONT></SPAN><A
