Postdoctoral Position in theoretical Neuroscience at Bocconi University, Milan, Italy

[Quantitative Life Sciences]

A fully-funded, three-year postdoctoral position in 
theoretical neuroscience is now available at Bocconi University's 
Department of Computing Sciences in Milan, Italy. The postdoctoral 
researcher will have the chance to explore various research topics, such 
as movement modulation of visual responses in mice, integrating 
connectomes in mechanistic models of brain functions, and building 
normative models of neural representations, among others. The research 
will utilize cutting-edge approaches from statistical physics, nonlinear 
dynamics, and machine learning, and will be informed by the latest 
electrophysiological and connectomic data. Prior experience with 
computational neuroscience is a plus, but it is not required.

The postdoc will have the opportunity to become a part of the thriving 
neuroscience, machine learning, and computer science communities at 
Bocconi University. To learn more about these communities, please visit 
https://cs.unibocconi.eu/ and https://bidsa.unibocconi.eu/. The postdoc 
will be a member of the NSF-funded Accelnet consortium "International 
network for brain-inspired computation" facilitating  international 
collaborations between a large network of computational neuroscience/AI 
labs.

At Bocconi University, we are committed to fostering a diverse 
intellectual community and encourage individuals from underrepresented 
groups to apply for these positions.

Applicants should apply via our on-line application system, which can be 
found at "www.unibocconi.eu/post-doc 
<http://www.unibocconi.eu/post-doc>" (Publication nr. 65633) by 23:59 of
