The ideal candidate will have extensive experience with MATLAB or an equivalent programming language, strong computational skills, and a background in experimental psychology or neuroscience. We are particularly interested in candidates with experience and interest in addressing questions about working memory using artificial neural networks. Organizational skills and attention to detail are essential.
Applications will be accepted immediately. To be considered, all applicants must submit a cover letter/statement of research interests, a curriculum vitae, transcript, and contact information for at least two references.
The terms of employment are competitive and include housing and educational subsidies for children.
