Postdoctoral/research associate position in computational neuroscience

         A postdoctoral/research associate position is available in the Lab 
for Theoretical and Computational Neuroscience at the Department 
of Neurobiology and Anatomy, Drexel University College of Medicine. 
Current projects in the lab supported by NIH include (1) computational 
modeling of brainstem respiratory network and neural control of breathing 
and (2) computational modeling of the spinal circuitry involved in the 
locomotor rhythm generation and neural control of locomotion. 
         Requirements for the position include a PhD, experience in modeling 
of single neurons (in the Hodgkin-Huxley style) and small and/or high-scale 
biological neural networks, and strong C++ programming skills. 
Experience in the analysis of nonlinear systems is an advantage. 
         The successful candidate will be involved in ongoing collaborations 
with several research groups in the USA and other countries performing 
complementary experimental studies.
         The position is available for at least 2 years. Interested individuals 
should respond (preferably by email) with a CV and names of at least 3 
references to Dr. Ilya A. Rybak, Department of Neurobiology and 
Anatomy, Drexel University College of Medicine, 2900 Queen Lane, 
Philadelphia PA 19129; email: rybak at drexel.edu
         Applications will be accepted until position is filled. 
         Drexel University is an equal opportunities employer.
         Feel free to email any questions. A preliminary interview at the 
Society for Neuroscience Meeting is possible.
