POSTDOCTORAL POSITION AT MCGILL VISION RESEARCH

A postdoctoral position has become available in Fred Kingdom's lab at
the McGill Vision Research Unit to study the role of colour vision in
scene analysis.   The research will deal with how colour vision is
used in the analysis of  image structure (e.g. figure-ground
relationships, grouping, edges, texture, transparency,
shape-from-shading), as well as in higher-level aspects of scene
analysis.  Techniques will include psychophysics, image analysis, and
where appropriate, FMRI.  Interested candidates should have, or
nearly have, a PhD and preferably experience with graphics
programming (e.g. Macintosh, VSG).  The McGill Vision Research Unit
consists of about fifteen faculty/postdocs/graduate-students working
on neurophysiological, psychophysical, computational and
brain-imaging aspects of vision.  Montreal is a very pleasant,
cosmopolitan and relatively inexpensive city.

Interested candidates should send CVs to Fred Kingdom, McGill Vision
Research Unit, 687 Pine Av. W., Rm. H4-14, Montreal, PQ, H3A 1A1,
Canada.  Informal inquiries can be made to fred.kingdom@mcgill.ca.
I will be available for informal discussions with interested
candidates at VSS.
