I am excited to announce an opening for a postdoctoral researcher on an 
NIH-funded project on the computational and mathematical neuroscience of 
exploration and decision-making, led by Drs. Tim Verstynen (Dept. of 
Psychology, Carnegie Mellon University) and Jonathan Rubin (Dept. of 
Mathematics, University of Pittsburgh). The project specifically focuses 
on how dynamics of cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic pathways map to 
cognitive models of adaptive decision-making, and how these circuits 
regulate information flow in the mammalian brain.  The project includes 
opportunities to work with human behavioral and functional brain imaging 
data as well as rodent electrophysiological and behavioral data.

The position is renewed on an annual basis with multiple years of 
funding secured.  Applicants with a PhD in areas covering computational 
neuroscience (e.g., neuroscience, mathematics, computer science, neural 
engineering), or a related discipline, with experience in computing, in 
dynamical systems, and (ideally) in computational neuroscience, should 
apply at:
