PhD/Postdoc Positions at the Interface of Neuroscience and Machine Learning
*PhD/Postdoc Positions at the Interface of Neuroscience and Machine Learning* The lab of Dr Jian Liu invites applications for several PhD/Postdoc positions at the interface of computational neuroscience and machine learning, at the School of Computing, Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, University of Leeds. Research projects will involve theoretical analysis, computational modeling, and data analysis, with worldwide collaborations of neuroscience experimentalists, clinicians, and robotic engineers. We are working on a wide range of topics, from fundamental neuroscience questions to robotic applications. For representative examples and publications, please visit: http://jiankliu.github.io Candidates with a quantitative background are welcome. We are looking for highly motivated candidates with a spirit of intellectual adventure. The positions will come with competitive work conditions. Generous traveling budgets are available. Please send the following information in one single PDF, to j.liu9@leeds.ac.uk: - Detailed CV with publications; - Letter on motivation and interests; - Other relevant materials of interest; The School of Computing conducts ranging from fundamental advances in algorithms and our understanding of computation, through to highly applied research into new display technologies for clinical diagnosis, energy-efficient data centres, and profound insight into data through visualisation. We are parents with the Alan Turing Institute, the UK’s premier research centre for data science and artificial intelligence. The University of Leeds is committed to providing equal opportunities for all and offers a range of family friendly policies. The University is a charter member of Athena SWAN and holds the Bronze award. The School of Medicine holds the Gold award. We are committed to being an inclusive medical school that values all staff, and we are happy to consider job share applications and requests for flexible working arrangements from our employees.
