Call:
Are you fascinated by the intriguing intersection of
Computational Neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence? Do you
find yourself captivated by groundbreaking concepts such as
neurotech, neuromorphic computing, and many-person neuroscience,
among others? Are you intrigued by the vast potential of
artificial intelligence in the realm of biomedical data
modeling? If yes, we invite you to consider applying for one of
the three exciting PhD positions available at the University of
Rome Tor Vergata.
In our enriching research and training program, you can delve
into a wide spectrum of innovative domains ranging from
Neurotech to Biomedical imaging and simulation, novel drug
delivery systems and neuromodulation technology, physiological
systems modeling, the future of AI-based radiation oncology
planning, and HCP, among others. The possibilities for
exploration, growth, and discovery are limitless, with
opportunities to engage in both computational and experimental
work tailored to align with your unique profile and interests.
Activities:
We are looking for enthusiastic, result-oriented graduates or
postgraduates who are eager to immerse themselves in these
pioneering research fields. Join our interdisciplinary team (https://fismed.uniroma2.it/)
to contribute to a dynamic environment that thrives on
collaboration, teamwork, and intellectual curiosity.
As part of our team, you will engage in a range of activities
from grant-writing and drafting of scientific publications to
occasionally teaching at the university level. Moreover, you'll
get the opportunity to collaborate at national and international
levels and tackle challenging research problems that span across
the physical, mathematical, computational, basic and clinical
sciences.
We are proud recipients of funding from renowned organizations
such as the European Commission (Horizon 2020 and Horizon
Europe, EIC), the Italian National Ministry of Health, The
Italian Association for Cancer research (AIRC), the US
Department of Defense (DOD), and the National Institutes of
Health (NIH), as well as private institutions and foundations.
Profile:
You hold a Master's degree in Computational Neuroscience,
Artificial Intelligence, Applied Physics, Computer Science,
Computer/Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
You have a robust understanding of dynamical systems theory,
computational neuroscience and/or AI.
Desirable but not necessary: experience with neuroscience data,
control systems, neural differential equations, and other
related fields.
You have a strong background in mathematics and Python
programming skills, and are familiar with advanced machine
learning libraries.
You are passionate about research and exploration in the field.
Application:
To apply, send a brief motivation letter and a Curriculum Vitae
to Prof. Nicola Toschi (toschi@med.uniroma2.it)
and cc Dr. Andrea Duggento (andrea.duggento@uniroma2.eu).
