Dear comp-neuro (with apologies for cross-posting),

We seek a skilled and enthusiastic individual to develop cutting-edge analysis and data-mining techniques for multi-neuron recording data, and apply those techniques to the analysis of extensive data-sets. The successful candidate will join a newly established team that tackles the challenging problems of how to make sense of the deluge of circuit-wide neural activity data, from cortical cell assemblies to invertebrate central pattern generators (http://www.systemsneurophysiologylab.ls.manchester.ac.uk/)

The ideal candidate will hold a PhD in a related discipline (e.g. computational neuroscience, computer science, statistics, physics, engineering), have good programming skills, and experience in either neurophysiological data or computational modelling of neural circuits. The position is available from January 2015 for up to 48 months.
