3 postdoctoral positions in insect visual neuroscience, Newcastle University's Institute of Neuroscience, UK


I'm recruiting 3 postdocs to work on a 5-year research programme funded by a Research Leadership Award from the Leverhulme Trust. The programme will investigate stereo 3D vision in an insect, the praying mantis. It will involve visual psychophysics, electrophysiology and computational modelling. I am looking for one postdoc with expertise in insect neurophysiology to run visual electrophysiology experiments, a second to run behavioural experiments, and for a scientific programmer to support the research programme. All three positions are funded for 5 years and will be in the lively environment of Newcastle University's Institute of Neuroscience in the beautiful north east of England. 

For more details on the research, please see http://www.jennyreadresearch.com/research/m3/ 
Do contact me with any questions or to discuss the positions. 

Please forward this email to anyone you think may be interested.
