<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Recruiting 2 Postdoctoral positions at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
</u></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Two postdoctoral positions are immediately available in the School of Optometry at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. The positions are linked to a large-scale research project concerned with the use of non-invasive brain stimulation
and perceptual learning to improve visually impaired patients’ functional vision and quality of life. A summary of the project can be found by following this link.
<a href="http://www.polyu.hk/so/index.php?lang=en&pageid=1012">http://www.polyu.hk/so/index.php?lang=en&pageid=1012</a>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Techniques involved in the project include visual psychophysics, perceptual learning, non-invasive brain stimulation, EEG and fMRI. The work is primarily based in the lab of Allen Cheong, and will include close collaboration with Ben Thompson
at University of Waterloo (primarily on non-invasive brain stimulation), and Sing-Hang Cheung and Dorita Chang at University of Hong Kong (primarily on brain-imaging research).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Experience in any of these areas (visual psychophysics, EEG, fMRI) is required, but skill in any two would be even more helpful. Experience with MATLAB/Python programming is highly preferable.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The School of Optometry at Hong Kong Polytechnic University is a world-renowned vision research group, addressing various important research areas in vision.

<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The appointment is initially for one year, renewable year by year for as many as three years. Salary is competitive and will be commensurate with experience.<o:p></o:p></p>
