The Computational Neurophysics lab at the University of Bremenheaded by Dr. Udo Ernst offers at the earliest date possible: *Postdoc / PhD student in Computational Neuroscience **for 3 years* In this project we want to study organization and optimization of flexible information processing in neural networks, with specific focus on the visual system. You will use network modelling,numerical simulation, and mathematical analysis to investigate fundamental aspects of flexible computation such as task-dependent coordination of multiple brain areas for efficient information processing, as well as the emergence of flexible circuits originating from learning schemes which simultaneously optimize for function and flexibility. These studies will be complemented by biophysically realistic modelling and data analysis in collaboration with experimental work. Here we will investigate selective attention as a central aspect of flexibility in the visual system, involving task-dependent coordination of multiple visual areas. ============ = Official text = ============ The Computational Neurophysics lab at the University of Bremenheaded by Dr. Udo Ernst offers at the earliest date possible: *Research Assistant / Postdoc in Computational Neuroscience (f/m/d)* German federal pay scale EG13 TV-L (100 %) *limited for 3 years*(according to § 2 WissZeitVG) *How to be flexible – organizing and optimizing task-dependent information processing in the visual system* In this project we want to study organization and optimization of flexible information processing in neural networks, with specific focus on the visual system.
