Applications for post-doctoral positions are invited for the Laboratory of Dr. Wilson Truccolo in the Department of Neuroscience at Brown University, Providence, RI, USA. The positions are for the development of data-driven stochastic models of multiscale neural dynamics. Neural data consist of recordings of single-neuron ensembles and local field potentials obtained via multiple intracortical microelectrode arrays implanted in human and non-human primates. Research topics include:

(1) Role of neuronal network intrinsic dynamics in neural encoding and decoding.

(2) Multiscale neocortical dynamics in human focal epilepsy: seizure transition, propagation and termination.

(3) Precursor signatures of focal seizure transitions, prediction and control.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in computational/theoretical neuroscience and modeling of stochastic neural dynamics.

Applications including a CV, statement of research interests, and the names and full contact details of three referees should be sent to wilson_truccolo@brown.edu.
