*Research Engineer/Post-doc in Computational Neuroscience*** *Institute of System Neuroscience (INS**), UMR1106 AMU-Inserm, Marseille, FRANCE*** ** An engineer/post-doctoral position**is open in the Theoretical Neuroscience Group (TNG) <http://ins.univ-amu.fr/research-teams/theoretical-neurosciences-group/>directed by Viktor JIRSA at the Institute of System Neuroscience (INS) for an experienced computational neuroscientist to work in modeling brain networks with the aim of creating individual Virtual Patient epilepsy models using The Virtual Brain platform as framework (see http://www.thevirtualbrain.org). *Qualification* Candidates must be highly motivated to work on an interdisciplinary project and collaborate with the various members of the group and with clinicians. They should have a degree in computational neuroscience, engineering or equivalent level of knowledge. A strong background in computational neuroscience (networks, modeling, dynamic system theory) and/or data fitting (Bayesian approaches, Dynamical Causal Modeling (DCM), Monte Carlo techniques) will be highly appreciated. Candidates must be comfortable working in computational environmentsand possess excellent programming skills. Experience using The Virtual Brain platform and development of software or clinical databases would be considered an advantage. *The Theoretical Neuroscience group* We are a multi-national team interested in understanding the mechanisms underlying the spatiotemporal organization of large-scale brain networks. Our work comprises mathematical and computational modeling of large-scale network dynamics and human brain imaging data, the development of neuroinformatics tools for studying large-scale brain networks applied to concrete functions, dysfunctions (epilepsy, dementia) and aging. *Terms of salary and employment* A 12-month renewable contract will be established. Salary will depend on the diploma and experience. Operating language in the laboratory is English. Applications including a cover letter, curriculum vitae and the names of two referees should be sent by April 30^th 2017 to: *Dr. Irene Yujnovsky* at irene.yujnovsky@univ-amu.fr More information about the INS and the Theoretical Neurosciences Group can be found at: http://bit.ly/29kub1k -- --------------------------------------------------- Irene Yujnovsky, PhD Chef de projet EPINEXT Institut de Neurosciences des Systèmes Inserm UMR1106 Université Aix-Marseille Faculté de Médecine, 27, Boulevard Jean Moulin 13005 Marseille, France Phone: +33 (0)491324239 email: irene.yujnovsky@univ-amu.fr Website: http://epinext.org/
