The Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience (BCCN) Berlin and the TU Berlin
invite applications for
6 Fellowships
of its new
Research Training Group “Sensory Computation in Neural Systems”
(GRK 1589/1).
Doctoral candidates will develop computational methods for the study of sensory computations, focusing on time and dynamics, and apply these in experiments. To this end, the training group brings machine learning and engineering together with neural and cognitive modeling as well as experimental approaches. Each student will be supervised by two investigators with complementary expertise and will be associated with the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Berlin, http://www.bccn-
Candidates are expected to hold a Masters degree (or equivalent) in a relevant subject (e.g., neuroscience, cognitive science, computer science, physics, etc.) and have the required advanced mathematical background. The deadline for application is March 15, 2010. Successful applicants will be invited for a short presentation and an interview, expected to take place in April 2010.
The fellowships of approximately 1500 €/month will be granted for up to three years.
