The Vision Research Laboratory at the Department of Physiology, Monash 
University, is recruiting for a post-doctoral position suitable for a 
person who has recently completed, or is about to complete a PhD in 
Systems Neuroscience. The position is available immediately (January 
2003), and has been funded to December 2005, with possibility of 
renewal. Relevant skills for the applicant include single-cell 
recording in behaving or anesthetized animals, anatomical tracing, and 
brain slice physiology. However, there is flexibility with respect to 
the project, and applicants with a good record of achievement in other 
areas are encouraged to apply. The key selection criteria will be 
ability to work independently (as indicated by referee reports), and a 
good publication record (judged relative to the applicant's stage of 
career).

The Laboratory, led by Assoc. Prof. Marcello G. Rosa, is interested in 
the organization of the visual cortex of primates, with emphasis on the 
anatomy and physiology of extrastriate cortex.

The salary will be NHMRC Research Officer range ($48,554-$52,121 
Australian dollars, plus superannuation). If necessary, relocation 
costs to Melbourne will be covered (exact amount to be negotiated 
individually). There is no deadline for the application, as position 
will remain open until a suitable candidate is identified.
