University College London
Software Development: Tools for Grid-Based Computational Neurobiology

A software engineering position is available in the Department of Physiology
UCL as part of the MRC funded “Grid-enabled modelling tools and databases
for neuroinformatics” a collaborative project with the Institute for
Adaptive and Neural Computation, Division of Informatics, University of
Edinburgh. The aim of the project is to develop software tools to aid
construction, visualization, and analysis for both realistic neural network
models constructed in the Neuron and Genesis simulation environments and for
lower level 3D-diffusion-reaction models of synaptic mechanisms. The
candidate will have a strong quantitative background with a degree in
neuroscience, computer science, physics or engineering and will be expert in
programming in JAVA, and C. A higher degree (MSc/PhD) would be advantageous
and experience with the Neuron simulator would be useful but not essential.
Development of software tools will be closely linked to existing modelling
projects and to the electrophysiological and optical experiments carried out
in Dr Silver’s lab ( http://www.physiol.ucl.ac.uk/research/silver_a/ ). The
post is funded for 2 years. Further information is available from Angus
Silver (a.silver@ucl.ac.uk). To apply please send CV before June 30th 2003.
