BBP - Postdoctoral Position in Molecular Neuron and Synapse Modeling A post-doctoral position in modeling of molecular synapses and neurons is available at the Blue Brain Project at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland (www.epfl.ch). The Blue Brain Project, based in Geneva, Switzerland, performs large-scale simulations of the brain. The position entails development of methods and systems to perform multi-scale modeling and integrate knowledge of signaling pathways to create models of plasticity, transmission, and regulation. The ideal candidate will have a Ph.D. in computational neuroscience or related field. Experience in modeling of molecular plasticity, biochemical signaling cascades, and reaction-diffusion modeling is desired. Strong biology and mathematical background, as well as coding competence in Python, C++, and NEURON are essential. We are looking for highly motivated individuals to work as members of a highly multidisciplinary group working at the interface of neuroscience, physics and computer science with good writing, collaboration, and communication skills. Selected candidates will join a prestigious project that is pioneering simulation neuroscience research, composed of a young, dynamic, interdisciplinary, and international team. We offer a state-of-the-art working environment based at the Biotech Campus in Geneva ( http://www.campusbiotech.ch/en/ ) with access to cutting edge simulation, informatics and computing facilities. Interested applicants should submit a cover letter and a detailed CV in PDF format only, with file name “Surname_position _Cover Letter” and “Surname_positon _CV” electronically to jobs.bbp@epfl.ch Please use the reference of the position title in the “object” field.
