[visionlist] Scientist position in modeling at the Allen Institute

[Anton Arkhipov]

Join us to analyze world-class experimental data and build the next generation of brain models!

This opening is in the lab of Anton Arkhipov at the Allen Institute (Seattle, WA). One position is already taken, but one is still available:
Scientist I - Bio-realistic Modeling of Reconstructed Cortical Tissue

See details and apply here:

The Scientist will focus on data analysis and modeling of structure, activity, and computations in mouse cortical circuits.

This project will take advantage of unprecedented experimental datasets from the Allen Institute that contain a systematic characterization of synaptic connections between the cell types (https://portal.brain-map.org/explore/connectivity/synaptic-physiology) and a connectome of individual neurons coupled with dense recordings of activity in the mouse visual cortex (https://microns-explorer.org<https://microns-explorer.org/>).

The Scientist will work collaboratively with colleagues to integrate these data into new, highly realistic network models of cortical circuits, use the models to explore theoretical predictions, and provide them as a resource to fuel future theoretical, modeling, and experimental work in the community.
