If you are a data scientist, programmer, or engineer, with a keen interest in helping to understand the brain, consider joining our team.

In our work, we study the activity of neuronal circuits in behaving animals.
To achieve that, we perform large-scale recordings from thousands of neurons simultaneously using multimodal recordings, including electrophysiological or optical imaging approaches.

Using this unprecedented data, we will be able to understand information flow in the brain in ways that would be unimaginable only a few years ago.

The scale and complexity of this data provide major challenges and unique opportunities.

We are looking for computationally-orientated researchers to join our team as temporary or permanent staff members, to help us develop methods to interact and analyze our multi-dimensional neurophysiological and behavioral data, and to develop innovative analysis approaches and efficient processing pipelines, to accelerate the progress of our research on our path to understanding the brain.
