[visionlist] Two upcoming post-doc positions in Roland Fleming's lab

[Roland Fleming]

Hi everyone,

I expect to be announcing two post-doc positions in my lab at the Justus Liebig University of Giessen (Germany), within the coming weeks.  If you would be interested in applying, it would be great if you could contact me in advance.

You should have a background in perception or motor control, although I’ll also consider particularly strong candidates from other backgrounds.  Experience with any of the following would be a significant bonus:

- computational modelling of perceptual and/or motor processes
- machine learning, especially deep learning
- computer graphics, especially physics simulations
- MoCap (with or without markers)
- robotics
- fMRI

My lab specialises in the visual perception of—and motor interactions with—materials and objects. Topics include visual estimation of material properties and shape; physical reasoning and naive physics; grasping and dextrous manipulation; one-shot learning; shape understanding, including perceptual organisation of shape and inferences about causal history.  Check out my lab website for more information, including articles and datasets.

My lab is situated in one of the top research environments for visual perception and sensorimotor research worldwide, with a large group of Principle Investigators and a thriving and diverse community of junior researchers working on perception and action using psychophysics, eye-, hand- and body-tracking, VR, fMRI, EEG, machine learning and other methods.  We run several large-scale research consortia, providing excellent local and international networking opportunities.  Giessen is also ideally located in the centre of western Europe, with half-a-dozen other countries a mere train-ride away.  

If you are interested, I look forward to hearing from you!  Note that due to travel I may not respond immediately.

Best wishes,
Roland Fleming
