Post-Doc Position Opening

by Samir Suweis

Position Title: Postdoctoral Fellow Position location: Padova, Italy, 35131 Subject Area: Statistical Physics/Neuroscience/Complex Systems Position ID: LIPh lab, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Padova The LIPh Group of the University of Padua invites applications for a postdoctoral position within the project “Emergence of criticality in the brain” (see Summary below). Appointment duration: 18 months, with possible extension. Start: May 2015 or earlier. Salary will be competitive on European standards, depending on candidate’s experience and qualifications. Profile: strong background on statistical physics. Candidates with both analytical and numerical (e.g. GPU computing / Data Analysis) skills will be favored. Past research experience on brain network modeling / neuroscience is preferable, although not mandatory. The LIPH group, headed by prof. Amos Maritan, is active on a broad spectrum of subjects and it is a vibrant, interdisciplinary research team that benefits greatly from collaboration from all around the world. More information can be found at: http://www.pd.infn.it/~maritan Within the project, the candidate will also work in collaboration with Vassanelli’s ‘NeuroChip’ Lab (www.vassanellilab.eu) where experimental measurements of neuronal network activity will be performed using advanced high-resolution recording techniques. Interested applicants are requested to submit a CV, publication list, a brief cover letter (max 1 pages) and at least two letters of recommendation. All material should be sent to suweis(a)pd.infn.it. For further information please contact A. Maritan (maritan(a)pd.infn.it) The deadline for applications is April 25, 2014. Later applications will also be considered until the positions are filled Summary of the project “Emergence of criticality in the brain”. The project will address the more fundamental question on how and why living systems are often found to be tuned near a critical state. Our approach will try to justify the ubiquitous critical behavior of living systems in terms of its evolutionary advantage. In particular we will expand abstract and general theoretical framework developed in [1] to the context of Boolean networks and by building adaptive evolutionary models on heterogeneous complex networks. In this way we will be able to have a more physical and close description of the particular system under study, i.e. the interaction networks of real neurons. We will then verify and characterize the emergence of criticality in brain networks by analyzing neuronal activity and its propagation as measured in Vassanelli’s lab. Criticality and power law behavior will be assessed by looking at the presence of activity avalanches of firing neurons, taking advantage of the high-resolution and large-scale features of the new recording method. The topological architectures of neural network evolved under different stimuli and the corresponding degree distribution will be also studied. In the first year, we will mainly focus on investigating the spontaneous emergence of criticality in neuronal cultures from the rat cortex. In the second year, networks in slices form the somatosensory barrel cortex will be assessed. [1] Hidalgo, J., Grilli, J., Suweis, S., Muñoz, M. A., Banavar, J. R., & Maritan, A. (2014).

PhD funded position in Psychology (Birmingham City University) -New insights into ADHD through behavioural and modelling studies

by Eirini Mavritsaki

PhD Student Bursary, School of Social Sciences, Department of Psychology. 3 year funded bursary. REF BLSS PhD PSYCH 1 - New insights into ADHD through behavioral and modelling studies There are many limitations on the behaviour of complex neural systems, but one primary constraint is to filter incoming input in order that actions can be programmed to behaviourally relevant stimuli. This is the limit of ‘attention’. A major challenge for current researchers is to understand how (and why) these limitations arise, especially in conditions like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) where the attentional system is dysfunctional. The projects main aims are to access differences in visual attention between children diagnosed with ADHD and typically functioning children and the role of diet in this. We aim to do this using a novel interdisciplinary approach, behavioral and computational modelling study together with a food diary. The PhD is part of a bigger research project that is in collaboration with The University of Oxford (Prof. Glyn Humphreys) and Russell Hall Hospital (Dr Chrysavgi Tsakona). The successful applicant will join the newly-established Centre for Applied Psychological Research (CAP Research) within the Division of Psychology at Birmingham City University. This centre is part of a vibrant and rapidly expanding research community, which offers applicants with an excellent opportunity to develop their research career. This can include the opportunity to gain teaching experience, to participate in research seminars and to co-supervise undergraduate projects.

by Matthias Schultze-Kraft

* Call for Participation and Contributions * International Workshop on Symbiotic Interaction Berlin, 7th and 8th of October 2015 Technische Universität Berlin, Germany www.symbiotic2015.org The Symbiotic Workshop presents an overview of the symbiotic relationships between humans and computers as well as novel advancements therein. There will be organized sessions and room for free discussions to shape the concepts, goals, and directions of this new field of research. The idea of symbiotic systems put forward in this workshop capitalises on the computers’ ability to implicitly (even subliminally) detect the users goals and psycho-physiological states and thereby enhancing human-computer interaction (HCI) without subducting control from the human. A special focus of this year’s Symbiotic Workshop will be on physiological computing approaches, e.g. using brain-computer interface (BCI) technology. Call for Contributions include Research Papers (12 pages including references) or Posters and Demos (6 pages) that contribute to an emergent community investigating Symbiotic Interaction as a future paradigm with theories and conceptual frameworks, experimental paradigms and user studies, multi-modal data analysis and design driven research. Submission guidelines are available from www.symbiotic2015.org. The proceedings (including research papers as well as short papers for posters and demos) will be published in LNCS Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science.
