<DIV dir=ltr align=left><FONT face=Arial size=2>Applications are requested for a
postdoctoral position in visual neurophysiology at the Montreal Neurological
Institute (MNI), which is part of McGill University's School of Medicine.
The MNI is located in downtown Montreal, Canada, and provides a multifaceted
neuroscience environment with clinical and research activities housed under one
roof.<SPAN class=265190914-18042008> </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

size=2>University's Institute of Computational Biomedicine. The goal of
the project is <SPAN class=265190914-18042008>to</SPAN> elucidate how
visual processing occurs in higher-level cortical areas during natural<SPAN

stimulation</SPAN>. It will involve recording neuronal activity from the
visual cortex in alert macaque monkeys, as well as the development and
application of novel models of visual computation. The lab has facilities
for multi-electrode recordings, human psychophysics, TMS, and eye movement
monitoring. More information on our current research interests can be
found at:</FONT></DIV>
