POST-DOCTORAL POSITION IN VISUAL NEUROSCIENCE

=20

A postdoctoral position is immediately available in the Center for
Perceptual Systems at the University of Texas at Austin
(www.cps.utexas.edu). The goal of this project is to investigate the
neurophysiological basis and computational principles underlying visual
search in natural scenes. The project involves collaboration between the
labs of Dr. Wilson Geisler and Dr. Eyal Seidemann and includes
neurophysiological and computational components. Experimental techniques
include a combination of electrophysiology and real-time optical imaging =
of
neural population activity in the cortex of alert monkeys, and
psychophysical studies of eye movements in primate and human subjects.
Computational techniques include Bayesian statistical decision theory, =
ideal
observer theory and natural scene statistics.=20

The Center for Perceptual Systems at UT Austin offers exceptional =
facilities
and an outstanding interdisciplinary scientific environment in a =
collegial
atmosphere. Computational background, programming experience =
(C/C++/Matlab),
and experience with neurophysiology and psychophysics are desirable. =
