Description:  The new Brain & Behavior Discovery Institute at the Medical College of Georgia is part of a university-wide brain discovery initiative that brings together scientists to map neural circuits and decipher neural dynamics underling various cognitive behaviors.  We are seeking eight (8) faculty members on the tenure track level who will be appointed as faculty at the Assistant Professor, Associate Professor and Full Professor levels in the relevant neurosciences department of the School of Medicine and Institute of Molecular Medicine and Genetics.  We are particularly interested in candidates who study neural network mechanisms using in vivo electrode arrays or optical imaging techniques in awake rodents, non-human primates, and humans.  We are also seeking a faculty member in the area of monkey brain fMRI or brain-machine-interface research.  Candidates using mathematical and computational, i.e. (systems neurobiology) approaches are also welcome, experiences in large database construction, statistical pattern recognition, or intelligent computing such as the hierarchical temporal memory (HTM) algorithm and Bayesian network computation are preferred.
Application Deadline:  Until Filled

Consideration of candidates will begin January 15, 2008 and will continue until the search has been successfully concluded.  Letters nominating qualified candidates are requested and may be sent to:

Interested individuals should submit a cover letter, current resume/Curriculum Vitae, along with a 2 to 4 page research plan, and arrange for submission of 3 letters of recommendation.
