Dear colleagues,
a PhD position on spiking neural network theory is available in the
group of Tilo Schwalger at the Technical University Berlin and the
Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Berlin
(https://page.math.tu-berlin.de/~schwalge), Germany.
The position is offered in the context of the DFG project The Role of
Long-Range Brain Connectivity in Human Language Processing (ConnLingua),
a collaboration between the Technical University Berlin, the Max-Planck
Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences (Leipzig), the
Technical University Chemnitz, and the Czech Acedemy of Science (Prague).
Within this project, we will use spiking neural network models for
cortical microcircuits, models of working memory and advanced mean-field
methods to elucidate the neural mechanisms of syntactic language operations.
At the Bernstein center, we offer a structured program guiding doctoral
researchers through the PhD work and plenty of opportunities for
collaborations. The PhD student will also benefit from intensive
scientific interactions among researchers of the different labs of the
project.
The position is funded for 3 years. Applications are invited until
January 16. For more details, please see

Please share within your networks.
Best,
Tilo
