[visionlist] Postdoctoral position - Neurophysiology of Visually-Guided Action - McPeek Lab

[Robert McPeek]

An NIH-funded postdoctoral position investigating the neural mechanisms of
saccade target selection and visually guided action is available in the
laboratory of Dr. Robert McPeek at the State University of New York,
College of Optometry in Midtown Manhattan.

Current work in the lab investigates saccades, attention, and reaching
movements in primate superior colliculus and frontal cortex, particularly
during visual search. Techniques include single- and multi-electrode
recording, neuronal activation and inactivation, and behavioral
measurements of eye and arm movements.

Highly motivated applicants should have a PhD in a neuroscience-related
field and a strong background in neurophysiology, vision, attention, or
eye-movement research. Facility with MATLAB and/or Python is a plus.

SUNY Optometry has a strong, interactive community of researchers studying
diverse areas of vision, including visual neuroscience, perception, eye
movements, computational modeling, and translational and clinical research
on visual disorders. We are located in the heart of Manhattan, within
walking distance of major transportation hubs, and this central location
allows easy interactions with researchers throughout the New York City
metropolitan area.

To apply, please send a CV, a brief statement of research interests, and
names of three references. Questions and/or application materials should be
emailed to rmcpeek at sunyopt.edu
