Subject: [UAI] Faculty position: Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit
> The Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit is looking to recruit a
> lecturer (roughly equivalent to an assistant professor). We seek
> someone with interests from across the range of theoretical
> neuroscience and machine learning that would complement and bolster
> our existing strengths in neural representation, neural computation,
> and foundational and applied aspects of learning and Bayesian
> statistics. There is also the opportunity to run a human psychophysics
> lab in the service of testing theories. Remuneration will be at a
> level appropriate to the international standing of the successful
> candidate.
>
> The Gatsby Unit was set up at University College London as a research
> institute devoted to computational neuroscience and machine
> learning. We have core funding for four faculty, five postdocs and
> around ten PhD students. We have no undergraduate programme, so only
> graduate-level teaching is required. We are located in Queen Square,
> London, in close proximity to the Institutes of Neurology and
> Cognitive Neuroscience and the Functional Imaging Lab, and also have
> close ties with the Departments of Anatomy, Computer Science,
> Psychology, Physiology and Statistics at UCL and with groups in
> Physics and Experimental Psychology at Cambridge and beyond.
>
> Applications, including a CV, a statement of research interests and
> accomplishments and full contact details for three referees should be
> sent by 14th March 2003 by email to Alexandra Boss at
