lang="EN-US">A post-doctoral position is
available for a European Research Council funded program grant
on neuronal
mechanisms of cognition: multisensory convergence for learning
and memory. The scientific
work is a collaboration between Newcastle University Medical
School, UK
(Professors Christopher Petkov and Timothy Griffiths), the
University of Iowa,
USA (Department of Neurosurgery, led by Professor Matthew Howard
III) and the
University of Birmingham, UK (Profs. Ole Jensen and Simon
Hanslmayr). The work
will involve professionally conducted neurophysiological studies
with primate
models at Newcastle University. This work will be the primary
focus, but the
laboratory also works with neurosurgical patients at the
University of Iowa and
amnesic patients in Newcastle University which will complement
the work in
animal models. </span></p>

lang="EN-US">The successful candidate
will work on cutting edge behavioural, fMRI and
electrophysiological
experiments in nonhuman primates to study neural oscillations,
cognition and
multisensory integration using innovative learning and memory
tasks. Some
testing of cognitively impaired patients or neural recordings in
patients being
monitored for surgery would be possible and will help to
translate to humans
the mechanistic information that requires the work with animals.
Cutting edge
behavioural, neuroimaging and neurophysiological recording
studies will be
conducted, including neural system perturbation by stimulation
or inactivation
to establish causal relationships crucial for learning and
memory.</span></p>

Medical School in Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom. The ideal
candidate will
possess a PhD in neurobiology, or a related field, have a strong
track record
and experience with electrophysiological methods (e.g., EEG,
MEG, extracellular
recordings) or methods of stimulating the brain (e.g.,
optogenetics, TMS).
Evidence of strong computational and technical skills is
desired. Being able to
work independently and professionally and collegially as part of
a team is a
must. </span></p>

individual who already has evidence as a strong scientist, with
strong
technical and computing skills and a publication track record
with demonstrated
writing skills. Expertise involving behavioural and
neurophysiological work in
humans (e.g., EEG/MEG) or related techniques in other animals
are strongly
recommended.</span></p>
