We have two openings for postdoctoral associates at New York University as part of a BRAIN Initiative U19 project focused on the neural mechanisms of causal inference. Successful candidates will collaborate broadly with team members across institutions such as the University of Rochester (Drs. Greg DeAngelis and Ralf Haefner), Harvard Medical School (Dr. Jan Drugowitsch), New York University (Dr. Dora Angelaki), Baylor College of Medicine / Rice University (Dr. Xaq Pitkow), and the University of Washington (Dr. Greg Horwitz). The project is highly collaborative and interactive, involving high-density electrophysiological recordings indifferent animal subjects, optogenetic manipulations, development of novel dynamical theoretical frameworks, application of high-dimensional neural analyses, and establishment of a data analysis and storage platform across laboratories. In compliance with NYC’s Pay Transparency Act, the annual base salary range for this position is $58,500 to $70,000.
