Dear colleagues,
The Max-Planck Society and University College London recently launched a
joint initiative in Computational Psychiatry & Aging. This program
currently offers a number of open postdoctoral positions (application
deadline: 31 March 2011). We would be grateful if you could forward
the information below to students in your department who may have an
interest in applying for these positions.
With many thanks and my very best wishes,
Klaas
Max Planck Society – University College London
Joint Initiative in Computational Psychiatry and Aging
The Max Planck Society (MPS) and University College London (UCL) are
launching a joint initiative, funded by contributions from MPS and UCL,
commencing in May 2011 (for details, see
www.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/research-initiative-mps-ucl
<http://www.mpibberlin.mpg.de/research-initiative-mps-ucl>). The
initiative will involve laboratories including the Max Planck Institute
for Human Development (Berlin) and the Max Planck Institute for
Cognitive and Brain Sciences (Leipzig), in Germany, and the Wellcome
Trust Centre for Neuroimaging (London) and the Gatsby Computational
Neuroscience Unit (London) in the UK. The goal of the initiative is to
develop novel neuroscience approaches to understanding psychopathology
and cognitive aging that exploit computational and mechanistic
perspectives. We are seeking applicants for a number of post-doctoral
positions with an interest or background in computational neuroscience
who would like to use such approaches to understand psychiatric
disorders and cognitive aging.
The applicants should forward their CVs to Helena Maravilla
(MPSUCL(a)mpib-berlin.mpg.de), Max Planck Institute for Human Development,
Lentzeallee 94, 14195 Berlin, Germany. The deadline for the first round
of applications is March 31, 2011.
