Applications for NIH-funded post-doctoral
position are
invited for laboratory of Dr. Maxim Bazhenov at the University of
California,
Riverside. This project aims at understanding how odors and odor
concentrations
are encoded in the insect olfactory system. It involves close
collaboration
with laboratory of Dr. Mark Stopfer at NIH. For relevant
references see, Assisi
et al., Neuron 2011, 69(2):373-86; Ito et al., Neuron 2009,
64(5):692-706;
Assisi at al., Nature Neurosci, 2007, 10(9):1176-84. The ultimate
goal of this
work is to understand mechanisms and functions of biological
rhythms and the
role of neuronal oscillations and synchrony in information
processing.
Successful candidate will be responsible for
design and analysis
of the network models of olfactory system based on experimental
data and data analysis.
Qualified applicants are expected to have experience in
computational/theoretical
neuroscience and conductance-based neural modeling. Programming
experience with
C/C++ is required. Knowledge of PYTHON or MATLAB is a plus.
The University of California offers excellent
benefits.
Salary is based on research experience. The initial appointment is
for 1 year with
a possibility of extension. Applicants should send a brief
statement of
research interests, a CV and the names of three references to
Maxim Bazhenov at
maksim.bazhenov@ucr.edu
