Postdoctoral Positions in Experimental and Theoretical Cortical Neurophysiology - Paris

Postdoctoral Positions in Experimental and Theoretical Cortical Neurophysiology - Paris I am looking to fill two postdoctoral positions, one experimental and one theoretical, for a project aimed at characterizing the functional impact of stochastic mechanisms in cortical physiology, funded by HFSP. The experimental position will focus on in-vivo whole cell patch recordings in the cat and rat, including the development of several novel protocols and methods. The theoretical position will focus on developing both analytical methods for the analysis of the stochastic component of evoked and background activity from intracellular recordings, as well as biophysically-detailed models of neurons and networks. Experience required. Interested candidates may send their c.v. and two letters of recommendation to Dr. Lyle J. Graham, Neurophysique et Physiologie du Systeme Moteur, CNRS, Universite Rene Descartes, 45 rue des Saint-Peres 75270 Paris Cedex 06, France. Informal inquiries also welcome at lyle(a)cogni.iaf.cnrs-gif.fr For those planning to attend the NIPS Workshops at Whistler (Dec 12-14) you can arrange to meet me there.
