PhD studentships (including
fully funded scholarships) are available in the Laboratory of Neural
Computation at the Center for Neuroscience and Cognitive Systems of the Italian
Institute of Technology based in Trento, Italy.
The laboratory of
Neural Computation is interested in understanding how populations of neurons in
the cerebral cortex encode and exchange information. The laboratory
investigates these issues by developing mathematical methods for single trial
analysis of neural population responses and by developing biologically
plausible neural network models of cortical function and dynamics. Successful
PhD candidates would be able to perform research within these topics. Further
information about the laboratory can be found at:
For further
information and enquiries please contact by email Stefano Panzeri (stefano.panzeri@iit.it) as soon as possible, attaching a CV to the
email.
The deadline for
application is June 19th. Late applications cannot be considered.
Formal applications should be submitted through the web site of the Doctoral School in Cognitive and Brain Sciences - -
Specialized curriculum Cognitive Neuroscience , by following the link below

http://www.unitn.it/en/ateneo/
from which the link for the
online application can be found.
The aforementioned PhD
studentship in the Laboratory of Neural Computation falls under the area “COMPUTATIONAL
NEUROSCIENCE -Computational approaches to information processing in the
cerebral cortex “ within the
Doctoral School call.
The PhD programme is
expected to start November 2012 and the PhD is normally expected to be
completed in 3 years. The net salary is approximately euro 13600 per year, and
there are no tuition fees. The working language of the Institute is
English.
