POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITION IN OBJECT VISION
Single-Neuron Recording in Behaving Monkeys (Carl Olson)
and Human Neuropsychology (Marlene Behrmann)

     A position is available for a postdoctoral researcher to participate
in cross-disciplinary studies, supervised by Drs. Olson and Behrmann,
involving single-neuron recording in behaving rhesus macaque monkeys and
behavioral assessment of normal and brain-damaged human subjects.
The researcher will be expected to design and conduct studies in monkeys
and will have the opportunity to carry out parallel human studies.
The focus of the project will be on neural mechanisms underlying recognition
and structural awareness of objects.  Initial appointment will be for one
year with renewal possible.
     The Center for the Neural Basis of Cognition operates under the
auspices of Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh.
The surrounding neuroscience community, spanning the adjacent campuses of the 
two universities, is strong and varied, with strengths in PET and fMR imaging,
neuropsychology, computational neuroscience, neurophsyiology, neuroanatomy
and molecular neurobiology.  Information on the Center is available at  
http://www.cnbc.cmu.edu. 
	Applications for the position should include a curriculum vitae and
the names of three references, together with telephone numbers.  For further
