Ideal candidates for this position should have:
* a Masters degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or Biology with good mathematical and reasonable programming skills
* Basic knowledge about neural networks or machine learning, or models of biological functions
* programming experience (Matlab, C++, or Python)
* a strong interest in theoretical and experimental
neuroscience, and especially in higher-level vision and motor control
* English speaking and writing skills.
Applications with inappropriate background, e.g. in molecular or cell biology, will not be considered.
Committed to Equal Opportunities.
The Section of Computational Sensomotorics is working on computational and neural models of action processing, and technical applications related to action perception and control. Our lab is part of the Dept. of Cognitive Neurology
at the Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research (HIH), a leading European institution in Clinical Neuroscience. It is also part of the Werner Reichardt Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (CIN), an Excellence cluster from the German Research organization with more than 70 groups working on different aspects of systems neuroscience, and of the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience in Tübingen.
