PhD Position in Computational Neuroscience and Neuroimaging
at Jülich Research Centre and University of Düsseldorf Germany
One PhD position is available in computational neuroscience with a focus on mathematical
modeling of brain dynamics based on neuroimaging data in the lab of Prof. Dr. Simon Eickhoff
at Jülich Research Centre and University of Düsseldorf in Germany. The PhD candidate will
work on projects involving large-scale dynamical brain models derived from multimodal
neuroimaging data (structural, functional & diffusion magnetic resonance imaging, MRI)
combined with numerical simulations and analysis of model dynamics and parameter space.
We are specifically looking for candidates with training in applied mathematics/computational
neuroscience or related fields and experience in programming and numerical simulation of
neuronal models/nonlinear dynamics systems. The candidate will be responsible for
derivation, validation and analytical and numerical investigation of the whole-brain dynamical
models, preparation of necessary neuroimaging data, and writing manuscripts for publication.
The position provides a n opportunity to work in an interdisciplinary environment and training
in mathematical modeling of neuroimaging data and methods for data analysis.
More details on the lab: http://www.fz-juelich.de/inm/inm-7/EN/
Requirements:
 Master’s degree (or equivalent) in Applied Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, Computer
Science or a related field.
 Experience with programming languages such as C/C++/CUDA/Python/Matlab/R.
 Familiarity with numerical simulations of nonlinear dynamical systems/differential
equations. Experience with high-performance computing is a plus.
 Strong writing, communication, interpersonal and organizational skills.
 Experience with neuroimaging data processing and related analysis packages (FSL, SPM,
MRtrix, etc.) will be of advantage.
To apply:
Please send your CV, names of two referees, one-page letter of motivation (emphasizing any
related work/projects) and representative publications if any (up to 3) to Oleksandr Popovych
via email (o.popovych @fz-juelich.de ) . Please mention “PhD application” in the subject.
