Postdoc Advertisement: For visual prosthetics research through electrophysiological experiments in the retina. *Duration*: 22 months, starting around January 1 2015, with potential to continue through the end of the project in 2019. *Location*: scenic Tübingen, Germany *Supervisors*: Dr. Daniel L. Rathbun and Prof. Eberhart Zrenner – Experimental Retinal Prosthetics Group – Centre for Integrative Neuroscience, Institute for Ophthalmic Research, University Eye Hospital *Project Description*: *SysRetPro* – Systems Neuroscience in Service of the Next-Generation Retinal Prosthesis. Our primary goal is to connect prosthesis-mediated visual responses in the blind mouse retina and normal visual responses in the healthy mouse retina through a unifying theoretical framework that encompasses both existing computational models and empirical data. The ultimate goal of this research program is to create innovations for human implants. The postdoc will be focused on data collection for the project. *Skills*: Strong background in experimental extracellular neurophysiology using either MEAs, tetrodes, or single electrodes - patch clamp a bonus. Extensive knowledge in vertebrate visual processing at the cellular, network, and systems level. Programming experience – preferably MATLAB Fluency in English, German fluency appreciated. An interest in computational modeling is preferred but not necessary. *Duties*: Experimental design within the framework of the project. Oversee and execute a program of experiments. Process and analyze MEA data corresponding to visual and electrical responses. Participate in the computational modeling of experimental data. Coordinate your activities with the PIs and bachelors, masters, and doctoral students. Active participation in development and writing of manuscripts from the lab. Work with Dr. Rathbun & Prof. Zrenner to secure funding to extend your position for the second phase of the 60-month project. *Contact*: daniel.rathbun@uni-tuebingen.de
