We are looking for an outstanding postdoctoral fellow to work on NIH grants to unravel the neural basis of form distortions seen by amblyopic adults and children. The research builds on our previous work on orientation processing, ON/OFF systems, electrophysiology
and modeling of striate cortex, and perception of 3D object shapes, poses and motions. The new projects include psychophysics with normal observers to identify neural mechanisms of static and moving shape and scene perception, and with amblyopes using GANs
to generate images of perceived distortions of stimuli that can identify neural deficits. The psychophysics results will guide computational models of normal and amblyopic cortical development. The project involves collaboration with neurophysiologists and
clinical researchers, plus imaging collaborations that are being set up. The lab is situated in the geographic center of Manhattan, and postdocs are encouraged to explore the scientific, intellectual and cultural riches of NYC. Applicants should have a PhD
in theoretical, computational and/or experimental research in any relevant field, and the curiosity and desire to learn new areas. Salary will be at NIH levels plus benefits. Our experience in the lab shows that excellence and diversity go together. We welcome
applications regardless of race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, age, sexual orientation, gender identification, and disability status. Email a letter of interest, CV, pdfs of selected papers, and names of two references to
