Postgraduate Research Studentship 2004

Applications are invited for a 3-year research studentship to study 
human binocular vision, leading to the degree of PhD. 

This studentship forms part of an EPSRC funded research project, held 
by Julie Harris, to study how visual information from the two eyes is 
used by the visual system to see depth and distance.  The studentship 
will be based at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne, in a lively 
and vibrant research environment, with a strong vision community. 
Newcastle's Psychology grouping was awarded 5* at the last RAE.

Start date is negotiable, 1st October 2004 at the latest.

Candidates should hold (or expect to hold) a good Honours degree (at 
least 2.1) in a relevant discipline (including Bioengineering, 
Computer Science, Mathematics, Optometry, Physics, Physiology, 
Psychology). They should have an interest in learning visual 
psychophysical and modelling techniques. Mathematical skills, 
including computer programming experience, would be desirable.

Applicants should provide a statement of their research interests in 
an application letter, and include a full CV. Contact details of at 
least two referees are also required.
