processes control perception. We combine theories of probabilistic neural coding, machine learning and natural image statistics, psychophysics, and neurophysiology through collaborations. The candidate is expected to perform research related to these topics,
and will have the opportunity to interact closely with experimental collaborators and access to datasets including electrophysiology, imaging, and perturbations of large neural populations.</span><span style="margin:0px;font-size:12pt"><span style="margin:0px;font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> </span></span></p>
