PhD in Computational Neuroscience at the University of Exeter (fully funded)
by James Rankin April 5, 2017

April 5, 2017

PhD in Computational Neuroscience at the University of Exeter (fully funded) ***Closes in 4 days*** 3.5 year college funded PhD Studentship in Computational Neuroscience: *Neural dynamics of perceptual competition * Ref: 2589 Open to UK, EU and International students with maintenance (£14,296 per year) and tuition fees fully funded http://www.exeter.ac.uk/studying/funding/award/?id=2589 This interdisciplinary project will use mathematical modelling, in conjunction with psychophysics (human perception experiments), to better understand the neural competition underpinning the dynamics of perception. Ambiguity in fixed sensory stimuli can lead to spontaneous switches in perception, both in vision, e.g. binocular rivalry, Necker cube, and audition, e.g. auditory streaming (switches between grouped or segregated interpretations of tone sequences). A set of common characteristics (inevitability of perceptual changes, exclusivity between the competing percepts, and randomness in the percept durations), generalise across sensory modalities. The neural competition driving these perceptual switches has been successfully modelled in small networks of Wilson-Cowan (firing rate) units, each associated with the different perceptual interpretations. For certain stimuli, where competition takes place across a continuous feature space (say, visual orientation, motion direction, or auditory pitch), a continuum model, such as the neural field equation can be applied. This PhD project will involve the derivation of perceptual competition models in a dynamical systems framework, based on plausible neural mechanisms commonly found in sensory cortex. Modelling hypotheses and predictions will be tested against experimental data collected in our lab or from collaborators. On the modelling side, tools from bifurcation analysis including numerical continuation will be applied to investigate dynamics. The project will be flexible in terms of the balance between modelling and experiments. Candidates with quantitative backgrounds (mathematics, physics, and engineering) and from neuroscience or psychology programmes are encouraged to apply. Programming experience and/or knowledge of dynamical systems theory is a plus. Contact: j.a.rankin(a)exeter.ac.uk Informal enquiries welcome. Application deadline: 10th April 2017 Please forward to interested parties as appropriate Thanks, James

announcement Trieste Encounters on Cognitive Science (TEX) 2017
by Natalia Bielczyk April 4, 2017

April 4, 2017

Dear all, The* Trieste Encounters on Cognitive Science (TEX)* are a yearly summer initiative by SISSA aiming at bringing together scientists from all over the world at all levels of their careers to enjoy science, but also sunshine, food & wine. This year’s edition focuses on* time in the brain*. By looking at time as percept but also as mechanism for perception, TEX 2017 will offer a broad and multifaceted view on the neuroscience of time. To this purpose we gather scientists who are studying time in the brain from different perspectives (e.g. how time shapes our perception, how information is processed over time, how time is perceived or misperceived) and using distinct methodological approaches (from *animal**electrophysiology* to *human neuroimaging*, from *computational modelling* to *psychophysics*). TEX 2017 is a *summer school* for PhD students and Post-Docs. The idea is to have classes on fundamentals provided by eight invited speakers who will give talks on the established concepts and body of evidence in their own field but to also have room for students and post-docs talks. You can *apply *by clicking on the the following link <https://indico.sissa.it/event/13/overview> TEX2017 will take place between *Monday June 12 and Friday June 16, 2017*. It will be held at *SISSA main campus*, via Bonomea 265, Trieste. Information on how to reach us can be found *here* <http://www.sissa.it/how-reach-us>. TEX2017 will feature *Marco Cicchini *(Pisa), *Ayelet Landau* (Jerusalem), *Stefano Panzeri* (Trento), *Warrick Roseboom* (Sussex), *Marshall Shuler * (Baltimore), *Virginie van Wassenhove* (Paris), *Hedderik van Rijn* (Groningen). We look forward to meeting you in Trieste next summer! Domenica Bueti, Mathew Diamond and the TEX2017 team

The OCCAM (Osnabr=C3=BCck Computational Cognition Alliance Meeting) is organized by Gordon Pipa, Frank J=C3=A4kel and myself and brings together= well established outstanding researchers as well as young promising scientists. This year, the 6th workshop of the series, jointly with the socSMCs project and coordinates with Andreas Engel (http://socsmcs.eu/) we focus on social interactions. The topic comprises theoretical, computational, physiological and robotics approaches. The program includes full length talks (see above), student presentations, a poster session, guided poster tours and a public talk to the general audience. We go to great length to actively involve all participants. Furthermore, there will also be time for informal discussions. Osnabr=C3=BCck is a charming town with a long history many places worth visiting (https://www.osnabrueck.de/english.html) It is conveniently located at the intersection of major train routes and has a local airport with good connections to major hubs (Frankfurt, Munich, London-City Airport) as well as a selection of further direct connections. More detailed travel information can be at http://www.occam-os.de/travel-info.html. We'd be happy if this meeting is of interest to you or your students and hope to welcome you in Osnabr=C3=BCck in summer 2017.
