Postdoctoral position in network modeling of the cerebellum

A postdoctoral position is available in the Computational Neuroscience Unit of Dr. Erik De Schutter at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology for large scale network simulations of the cerebellum. We have build an anatomically detailed 3D network model of cerebellar cortex with physiologically realistic neural spiking and synaptic properties.

Computational & Cognitive Neurobiology sumer school at CSHL-Asia

July 11 - 24, 2010, CSHL-Asia, Suzhou, China

Computational and Cognitive Neurobiology are playing an increasing important role in advancing our understanding of the neural basis of behavior. To foster this field in China and other Asian countries, and to help attract young talented students and postdocs to the field, we have developed a new summer school program to be held at a purpose-built academic center in Suzhou, China.
