Hi all, The Neural Control & Computation Lab at York University in Toronto, Canada, is recruiting a Postdoctoral Fellow. Under the direction of Jonathan Michaels, Ph.D., the fellow will investigate the neural basis of learning, flexible neural computation, and skilled movement control using large-scale electrophysiology from single-neuron populations in non-human primates, including high-density Neuropixels recordings and our recently developed capability for wireless, chronic Neuropixels recordings during naturalistic behavior. The fellow will be encouraged to develop an independent line of research within these themes. The fellow will join an exceptional and fast-growing neuroscience community. The lab is housed in York’s brand new, state-of-the-art Neuroscience Facility, which includes lab and office space for multiple neuroscience research labs and access to shared infrastructure such as MRI and CT. York is home to a collaborative community spanning the Centre for Integrative and Applied Neuroscience (CIAN), the Centre for Vision Research (CVR), and the Connected Minds (Neural and Machine Systems for a Healthy, Just Society) initiative. Toronto – Canada’s largest and most diverse city – offers a dense concentration of neuroscience research and an incredible culture and environment. This is a two-year funded position, with the potential for extension, offering a competitive salary (starting at $65k/year), benefits, and a negotiable start date (earliest September 2026). Visa and moving support are provided for international applicants. Applicants should hold a Ph.D. in Neuroscience or a closely related discipline. Favorable consideration will be given to candidates with expertise or substantial interest in one or more of the following: non-human primate electrophysiology, large-scale neural data analysis, computational modeling of neural circuits or motor control, and a strong record of research productivity. To apply, please email the following to Dr. Michaels: a cover letter describing your research experience and interests and how they align with the lab, a CV, one to two representative publications or preprints, and the names and contact information of two references. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled. https://www.ncclab.ca/join-the-lab (link to job ad and more info) Best, Jonathan __________________________________ Jonathan A.
