[Jorge Jaramillo]

Dear Visionlist,

https://neuroscience.uchicago.edu/postdoctoral-fellow-computational-neuroscience

We are looking for an outstanding applicant to develop large-scale circuit
models for decision making within a collaborative consortium that includes
the Allen Institute for Neural Dynamics, New York University, and the
University of Chicago. This ambitious NIH-funded project requires the
creativity and expertise to integrate multimodal data sets (e.g.,
connectivity, large-scale neural recordings, behavior) into a comprehensive
modeling framework. The successful applicant will join Jorge
Jaramillo’s Distributed
Neural Dynamics and Control Lab at the Grossman Center at the University of
Chicago. The Grossman Center Core Faculty | Neuroscience Institute
<https://neuroscience.uchicago.edu/grossman-center-core-faculty>  Throughout
the course of the postdoctoral training, there will be opportunities to
visit the other sites in Seattle (Karel Svoboda) and New York (Adam Carter,
Xiao-Jing Wang) for additional training and collaboration opportunities.

Appointees will join as Grossman Center Postdoctoral Fellows at the
University of Chicago and will have access to state-of-the-art facilities
and additional opportunities for collaboration with exceptional
experimental labs within the Department of Neurobiology, as well as other
labs from the departments of Physics, Computer Sciences, and Statistics.
The Grossman Center offers competitive postdoctoral salaries in the vibrant
and international city of Chicago, and a rich intellectual environment that
includes the Argonne National Laboratory and the Data Science Institute.
Postdoctoral fellows will also have the possibility to work in additional
projects with other Grossman Center faculty members.

Application: Please send your application before May 1st 2024 as a single
PDF file including: i) a CV with publications highlighted; ii) a motivation
letter specifying how you can contribute to large-scale circuit modeling
and data analysis based on current and previous work; iii) the contact
details of two academic references to jorgejaramillo at uchicago.edu. A
doctoral degree and sufficient computational background is required;
informal enquiries are welcome.

Starting date: The position is available immediately, starting date can be
defined via mutual agreement.
