[visionlist] Post-doc position in electrophysiology/neural coding at Columbia University in the City of New York

[Qi Wang]

A postdoc position funded by a 5-year NIH project is available in the 
Laboratory for Neural Engineering and Control in the Department of 
Biomedical Engineering at Columbia University 
(http://neclab.bme.columbia.edu/). The project investigates the role of 
the locus coeruleus – norepinephrine (LC-NE) system in modulating neural 
coding, perception, and learning.

The successful applicant should have a background in electrophysiology 
and quantitative analytical methods. Experiences in behavioral training 
of rodents is a plus.  We are looking for highly motivated researchers 
with a strong technical background, ideally with a PhD or equivalent in 
Biomedical Engineering, Neuroscience, Psychology, or a related 
discipline. Applicants should demonstrate excellent oral and written 
communication skills, and the ability to work effectively independently 
and as part of a multidisciplinary team. Salary will be commensurate to 
the candidate qualifications.

Applicants should submit a CV, a brief description of research 
interests, and a list of three references. All application materials as 
well as any inquiries should be sent to Prof. Qi Wang at 
qi.wang at columbia.edu.
