A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the Center for Neural Science at New York University for research into the neural mechanisms of sensory-motor behavior. The project will investigate activity in neuronal circuits of the posterior parietal cortex and its relationship to eye-hand coordination and decision making. Experimental work will involve simultaneous multiple area, multiple electrode recordings in behaving animals.
The successful candidate will be highly motivated, have a PhD in neuroscience, bioengineering or a related field, experimental experience in neurophysiology, and experience programming in MATLAB. They will benefit from state-of-the-art research facilities and a vibrant community at the Washington Square campus of NYU. Salary will follow NIH guidelines commensurate with training and experience.
