structure to cortical developmental modeling and addressing data
visualization challenges. The duration of the position is flexible,
beginning with an initial period of two years.
Candidates should have a PhD (or equivalent) in neuroscience, computer
science, or a related discipline, with a strong background in data
analysis and programming. Previous experience in neuroscience and
