Funded by the Simons Foundation), these positions offer an exciting opportunity to conduct cutting-edge research at the intersection of systems neuroscience and computational modeling. Our lab is broadly interested in Bayesian inference, perception, multisensory integration, spatial navigation, sensorimotor loops, embodied cognition, and computational psychiatry. We work across levels of analysis-from single neurons to human behavior-using both rodent and human models. This position will focus primarily on rodent research, though exceptional candidates with expertise in human cognitive neuroscience are encouraged to apply. Position Overview Successful candidates will lead projects involving: Large-scale neurophysiology (e.g., Neuropixels recordings) in awake, behaving rodents. Computational modeling and advanced data analysis. At least one role will be embedded within the newly launched Simons Collaboration on Ecological Neuroscience (SCENE)-a multi-species, international consortium exploring ecological behaviors across rodents, bats, non-human primates, and humans (https://www.simonsfoundation.org/2025/04/24/simons-foundation-launches-collaboration-on-ecological-neuroscience/). Collaborative Network You will engage with a global team of scientists, including but not limited to: Jan Zimmermann (University of Minnesota) Mate Lengyel (Cambridge) Daniel Wolpert (Columbia) Cris Neill (University of Oregon) Andreas Tolias (Stanford) Alexander & M
