In collaboration with experimentalists our group studies how
the visual system encodes information about external word. We
propose biophysical models, we develop methods coming from
theoretical physics and mathematics to analyse them, and we
design software inspired from the visual system to mimic its
behaviour and to analyse experimental data.
Successful applicants should have a strong background in
computer science. Physics, mathematics or life science majors
with strong skills in computer science (especially C/C++),
interested in quantitative modeling work are also encouraged
to apply, particularly if they would like to combine
experiments and theory in their Master or Ph.D. thesis work.
In order to make teamwork in our group enjoyable and fun, the
ideal candidate should have a strong work ethic and have
demonstrated consistent self-motivation skills.
Unfortunately our source of fundings only covers members of
the European Community.
Prospective students should apply by sending an email to which
includes
* a letter of motivation,
* CV,
* and a copy of the current academic transcripts
to be sent to
bruno.cessac@inria.fr
Looking forward to your applications!
