<p class="MsoNormal">The Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences (BCS) at MIT
seeks multiple tenure-track faculty at the assistant professor level. <span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Affiliations with the Picower Institute for Learning &
Memory and the McGovern Institute<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">for Brain Research are possible. We are most excited about
candidates who work in one or more of the following two areas:<span></span></p>
<p class="gmail-MsoListParagraph" style=""><span style="font-family:Symbol">·<span style="font-variant-numeric:normal;font-stretch:normal;font-size:7pt;line-height:normal;font-family:"Times New Roman"">
</span></span>Computational approaches to neuroscience and cognition.
Possible areas of focus include but are not limited to: statistical analysis of
neural data and neural signal processing; computational modeling of neural
circuits, of neural population representations and transformations; and/or of
human cognitive processes. Candidates with the ability to build bridges across
empirical domains are especially attractive. An affiliation with Electrical
Engineering and Computer Science (EECS), the Computer Science and Artificial
Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), or other allied departments is possible. The
Department aims to make multiple hires in this area.<span></span></p>

</span></span>Cognitive neuroscience in humans and/or
non-human primates. The ideal candidate would be conducting research that
informs our understanding of cognition while bridging levels of analysis and
using multiple methods, e.g. ECoG, fMRI, electrophysiology, MEG, computational
modeling, genetics and reverse engineering approaches.<span></span></p>
