Below is an ad for a postdoctoral position in my laboratory. Although
the readers of this list are primarily computational, you (or someone
you know) may be interested in gaining expertise in visual psychophysics
and virtual reality.

             POSTDOCTORAL FELLOW POSITION IN VISUAL PSYCHOPHYSICS

                             PI: Robert Jacobs
                          Center for Visual Science
                 Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences
                           University of Rochester

A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the lab of Robert Jacobs,
Center for Visual Science and the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences,
University of Rochester. The lab focuses on experimental and computational
studies of visual learning with respect to mid-level and high-level visual
functions, particularly on experience-dependent perception of visual depth.
Some projects in our lab study observers' abilities to recalibrate their
interpretations of individual visual cues, other projects study how observers
adapt their visual cue combination strategies, and still other projects examine
how information from other perceptual modalities (such as haptic or auditory
percepts) influence how observers interpret and combine information from visual
cues. We have a well-equipped lab that includes access to a wide variety of
virtual reality equipment for creating visual, auditory, and haptic environments.
