Identification, learning and control of tracking behaviors in a
neuro-robotic system
A position of postdoctoral fellow is available to investigate
information processing within a hybrid neuro-robotic system. The system
is composed of a small mobile-robot and of the brain of a sea lamprey.
The biological and the artificial elements exchange electrical signals
through a computer/electronic interface.
Applications are encouraged from people with a strong background in
Engineering and/or Physics and some research experience in Neural
Computation. The research has both an experimental and a theoretical
component. Some experience in techniques of electrophysiology is
desirable.
While a background on experimental neurophysiology is not a requisite,
the candidate should be willing to become acquainted with these
techniques and to carry out experimental work in conjunction with
theoretical modeling.
The Laboratory in which this research is carried out is affiliated with
the Departments of Physiology and of Biomedical Engineering of
Northwestern University and with the Rehabilitation Institute of
Chicago. Additional information about the laboratory and its research
can be found at http://manip.smpp.nwu.edu
If you are interested, send a CV and the names of three references via
email to
Sandro Mussa-Ivaldi (sandro@northwestern.edu)
Northwestern is an equal opportunity, affirmative action educator, and
employer.
