Job announcement: Postdoctoral and graduate student positions in Budapest

by Erdi Peter

Postdoctoral and graduate student positions available at the Computational Neuroscience Group, KFKI, Budapest, Hungary A postdoctoral and a graduate student positions in computational neuroscience are available at the CNS Group Budapest, to study and model spatial navigation strategies. The group works at the KFKI campus in Budapest, Hungary, as part of the Research Institute for Particle and Nuclear Physics, one of the research institutes of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. Details about the group can be found on the "http://cneuro.rmki.kfki.hu/" homepage. The research will be part of the four-year European research project "Integrating Cognition, Emotion and Autonomy" (ICEA, "http://www.his.se/icea"). The project involves cognitive scientists, neuroscientists, psychologists, computer scientists and roboticists, and aims at developing a cognitive systems architecture integrating cognitive, emotional and autonomic/bioregulatory processes in the control of robotic cognitive systems. These positions will be focused on modelling different spatial orientation strategies and the cooperation/competition between them. The key aim of this work is the functional and realistic modelling of hippocampus and other brain structures (e.g. entorhinal and prefrontral cortex) to give an efficient navigation algorithm to be used in real robots. The model will be built in close cooperation with behavioral electrophysiologists and their data will be used to test the biological reliability of the algorithm. Qualified applicants should have a doctoral degree (postdoctoral position applicants) or B.Sc. (graduate position applicants) in computational neuroscience, computer science or a related field. Applicants for this position will be evaluated according to the following criteria: * experience in computational neuroscience * programming skills * experience in analysis of electro-physiological data * broad interest to learn related fields * general ability to participate in teamwork and perform tasks * administrative and other skills that are relevant to the position The salary will be commensurate with the Hungarian Academic guidelines. For further information please contact Peter Erdi, group leader, or Zoltn Somogyvri ICEA project coordinator. Applicants are invited to send their CV, two letters of recommendation, brief list of scientific activities and publications to Pter rdi (erdi(a)rmki.kfki.hu), and to Zoltn Somogyvari (soma(a)sunserv.kfki.hu) via email no later than 20 June, 2006.
