Dr. Jessica Ausborn’s group at Drexel University College of Medicine, in the Department of Neurobiology & Anatomy has a postdoctoral position available for an exciting new research project involving computational models of sensorimotor integration based on neural and behavior data in Drosophila. The interdisciplinary collaboration with the experimental group of Dr. Katie von Reyn (Drexel School of Biomedical Engineering) will involve a variety of computational techniques including the development of biophysically detailed and more abstract mathematical models together with machine learning and data science techniques to identify and probe the algorithms computed in neuronal pathways that perform sensorimotor transformations.

The Ausborn laboratory is part of an interdisciplinary group of Drexel’s Neuroengineering program that includes computational and experimental investigators. This collaborative, interdisciplinary environment enables us to probe biological systems in a way that would not be possible with either an exclusively experimental or computational approach.
