Dear all,

Within sub-project 9 of the Human Brain Project (HBP) we are looking for a PostDoc to work on applications of neuromorphic computing.

You will join a dynamic team of researchers in computational Neuroscience and biomimetic robotic control at the University of Sussex and work on cutting edge prototype neuromorphic systems developed at Heidelberg (BrainScaleS, https://electronicvisions.github.io/hbp-sp9-guidebook/pm/pm.html) and Manchester (SpiNNaker, https://electronicvisions.github.io/hbp-sp9-guidebook/mc/mc_index.html).

Excellent programming skills and a keen interest in applying neuromorphic computing to interesting problems will be essential. Previous experience with neuromorphic computing and/or machine learning will be a big plus.

Deadline:            24 July 2018

Duration:             currently funded until end of March 2020; possible extension into the next funding phase of the HBP.

Queries:              Prof Thomas Nowotny (t.nowotny@sussex.ac.uk)

With kind regards,

Thomas Nowotny
