THREE POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWS

=20

DEPARTMENT OF COGNITIVE AND NEURAL SYSTEMS

BOSTON UNIVERSITY

=20

Three postdoctoral fellows are sought to join the Boston University
Department of Cognitive and Neural Systems as part of a major new NSF
Science of Learning Center called CELEST (Center of Excellence for =
Learning
in Education, Science, and Technology; Stephen Grossberg, PI;
http://www.cns.bu.edu/CELEST). All three fellowships are available
immediately for a minimum commitment of two years. Each fellow should =
have
significant graduate training and published research in behavioral and =
brain
modeling using neural networks, or in neuromorphic modeling in =
technology.
One fellow will carry out basic research in developing biological neural
networks in one or more CELEST research areas, in addition to working =
with
CELEST colleagues to develop large-scale system models of brain and
behavior. The other two postdoctoral fellows would combine basic =
research in
behavioral and brain modeling and/or neuromorphic technology with =
education
projects aimed at bringing current modeling knowledge about how the =
brain
works into educational curricula at multiple levels. One fellow will =
work
primarily with web-based materials, the other with printed materials. =
These
postdocs would also interact with CELEST members to develop these
educational resources. CELEST offers a wide range of excellent =
opportunities
for broadening knowledge of neural modeling and experimentation,
technological applications, and educational technology and outreach. =
Boston
University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. Please =
send
a curriculum vitae, 3 letters of recommendation, and illustrative =
research
articles to: CELEST Postdoctoral Search, Room 203, Department of =
Cognitive
and Neural Systems, Boston University, 677 Beacon Street, Boston, MA =
02215.
