[visionlist] Postdoc position "Accurate detection of precise spiking motifs in neurobiological data"

[PERRINET Laurent]

Dear colleagues,

Applications are welcome for a fully funded post-doctoral position at INT<http://www.int.univ-amu.fr/?lang=en> in Marseille<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marseille>, France. Your mission will be to build an algorithm for the accurate detection of precise spiking motifs in neurobiological data. The project is funded by the polychronies<https://laurentperrinet.github.io/grant/polychronies> grant (AMX-21-RID-025) and will be coordinated by Laurent Perrinet<https://laurentperrinet.github.io/> along with Thomas Schatz<https://thomas.schatz.cogserver.net/> (theory) and Rosa Cossart<https://www.inmed.fr/developpement-des-microcircuits-gabaergiques-corticaux-fr> (neurobiology).
