Postdoctoral Opportunities

Postdoc opportunity in the Joshua lab: “Neural basis for voluntary control of eye movements“

A postdoctoral position is available in the field of system neuroscience, under the supervision of Dr. Mati Joshua.

In the lab, we study how the brain processes reward information to drive and shape eye movements. The research involves behavioral experiments, multi-electrode recording from the cerebral cortex and from subcortical regions of non-human primates, and computational modeling of the nervous system. The successful candidate will join a project focusing on how the basal ganglia and cerebellum interact with the cerebral cortex to drive eye movements that are guided by rewards.

Requirements:

Candidates must hold a Ph.D. in neurobiology or a related discipline (e.g., physics, chemistry, computer sciences) and should have interests in system neuroscience. Candidates must be proficient in English.
