The Neuroscience Graduate Group (NGG; http://www.med.upenn.edu/ngg/) at the University of Pennsylvania is a collaborative and interdisciplinary PhD program that is currently accepting applications for matriculation in the fall of 2018. We are particularly interested in attracting exceptional applicants with backgrounds in Neuroscience, Computer Science, Cognitive Science, Mathematics, Engineering, Physics, and/or Psychology and are interested in the broadly defined field of Computational Neuroscience. We have a robust and interdisciplinary community of scholars in this field, including: Geoff Aguirre, Neurology Vijay Balasubramanian, Physics Danielle S Bassett, Bioengineering David H Brainard, Psychology Maja Bucan, Genetics Johannes Burge, Psychology Alice S Chen-Plotkin, Neurology Brian Chow, Bioengineering Yale E Cohen, Otorhinolaryngology Diego Contreras, Neuroscience Long Ding, Neuroscience Steven Eliades, Otorhinolaryngology Russell Epstein, Psychology Christopher M Fang-Yen, Bioengineering Michael Freed, Neuroscience Maria Neimark Geffen, Otorhinolaryngology Joshua I Gold, Neuroscience Joseph W Kable, Psychology Michael J Kahana, Psychology Elani Katifori, Physics Max Kelz, Anesthesiology Konrad Kording, Neuroscience and Bioengineering Daniel Lee, Electrical and Systems Engineering Brian Litt, Neurology and Bioengineering Minghong Ma, Neuroscience Joel D Mainland, Neuroscience Philip Nelson, Physics Michael Platt, Neuroscience, Marketing, and Psychology Nicole C Rust, Psychology Marc Schmidt, Biology Robert G Smith, Neuroscience Alan A Stocker, Psychology Sharon Thompson-Schill, Psychology Penn also has strong programs in Statistics, Computer Science, Engineering, and Psychology with faculty actively involved in machine learning, decision making, perception, and computational learning theory. NGG students are encouraged to pursue collaborations and interactions with these groups. Penn also is home to the Computational Neuroscience Initiative (https://cni.upenn.edu), which oversees many of our academic and research programs related to computational neuroscience. The application deadline for the NGG is December 1, 2017.
