The Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit invites applications for a postdoctoral Training Fellowship under the guidance of Professor Maneesh Sahani and Professor Jennifer Linden (UCL Ear Institute). You will focus on an investigation of the computational principles that underlie the formation of perceptual representations. The goal is to apply state-of-the-art unsupervised inferential approaches to learn models of acoustic environments, and evaluate the fidelity with which they reproduce neural recordings in the auditory cortex from animals raised in either routine or altered acoustic settings. Deadline: 28 February 2023.
