A postdoctoral position is available to study the embedment of neuronal models of spatial perception in a humanoid robot.
This project will involve the analysis of coordinated head and eye movements in humans and their replication with Mr. T, the APLab humanoid robot. The goal of this project is to autonomously integrate and calibrate visual cues of distance and depth available during behavior.
The ideal candidates will have a strong quantitative background. Experience working in visual neuroscience is preferred, though not a requirement. The candidate’s Ph.D. could be in Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, Neuroscience, or a related field. Experience with Matlab, C/C++, signal processing, and DSP programming is highly desirable. Salary will be commensurate with experience.
The Active Perception Laboratory is located within the Department of Cognitive and Neural Systems at Boston University. Boston University is a vibrant and exciting environment for postdoctoral study in vision. The newly established Center for Neuroscience brings together a collegial and highly interactive group of world-class interdisciplinary laboratories.
Please send curriculum vitae, brief statement of research interests and accomplishments, and names of two references to Michele Rucci.
