            Postdoctoral Position in Color Vision
      Visual Science Laboratories, University of Chicago

A postdoctoral research position is available to study
neural processes that mediate color perception in complex
scenes and natural contexts.  Psychophysical studies,
computational modeling and neuroimaging are used to
investigate the neural pathways of color vision.  Excellent
laboratory facilities, including fMRI, are available in an
active, collaborative environment of visual science
graduate students, post-docs and faculty.

Applicants should have experience conducting psychophysical
experiments, and some familiarity with computational
modeling. Knowledge of C and/or MATLAB in a Mac or UNIX
environment would be a benefit, as would experience with
fMRI.  Excellent written and spoken English is required.
Salary is according to the NIH scale plus many university
benefits including health insurance.  Start date is
flexible.

Inquires are welcome by email or telephone.  To apply,
please send a vita and the names of references.
