Permanent position in mathematical stochastic modeling of
neuromodulation in brain networks and application to mental
disorders
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The new research team NECTARINE at INRIA in Strasbourg / France aims to create
a synergy between clinicians and mathematical researchers to develop new healthcare
technologies. The team works on stochastic microscopic network models to describe
macroscopic experimental data, such as behavior and/or encephalographic. They collaborate
closely with clinicians and choose their research focus along the clinical applications.
Major scientific objectives are stochastic multi-scale simulations and mean-field descriptions
of neural activity on the macroscopic scale. Moreover, merging experimental data and
numerical models by machine learning techniques is an additional objective. The team's
clinical research focuses on neuromodulation of patients suffering from deficits in attention
and temporal prediction.
The team offers the possibility to apply for a permanent position as Chargé de Recherche
(CR) or Directeur de Recherche (DR) in the research field of mathematical neuroscience
with a strong focus on stochastic dynamics linking brain network modelling with experimental data.
The new colleague should have a strong expertise in mathematical modeling with a focus on
stochastic nonlinear dynamics and/or network dynamics, as well as strong interest in clinical
applications. Strong programming skills are mandatory.
INRIA is a French National Institute for Research in Digital Science and Technology
(
https://www.inria.fr/en) with 9 research centres in France. The new team will be located
in the centre of Strasbourg on the hospital campus as part of the Research Centre in Nancy.
The application deadline will be January 15,
2025, but it is strongly recommended to
contact us well in advance.

publication list), please contact Dr. Axel Hutt (email: axel.hutt@inria.fr) .
