Call for a postdoctoral researcher

A postdoc position is available in image processing, machine learning, and neuroscience. 

The objective of the new multi-year project is to understand the neural basis of behavior changes in humans/animals. We shall tackle the AI-based image processing technology for capturing body movements and characterizing possible changes in behaviors. We may also develop methods of analyzing neuronal co-activation from large-scale Ca imaging data or capturing brain waves from multichannel ECoG data. We are looking for a young researcher interested in working on one or some of these topics.

The contract is yearly-basis and renewable until March 31, 2027.

Workplace: Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan
