<span lang="EN-US">The postdoc will join a team of young researchers (including Alma Guilbert & Louisa Lavergne). He/she will collaborate in designing and running experiments
</span><span lang="EN-US">linked to the ANR-JC project “AdRenf” on saccadic adaptation induced either by conventional double-step paradigms or by reinforcement learning (see references below). A large part of this project is also dedicated to studying (space
and/or time) perception and will include psychophysical experiments. This will offer the successful candidate the unique opportunity to conduct studies that bridge the gap between vision science and the theory of reinforcement learning.</span><span lang="EN-US"><span></span></span></p>
