The Marcus Autism Center, in conjunction with the Emory University School of Medicine and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, is offering the Simons Fellowship in Computational Neuroscience, and we are interested in recruiting the highly qualified students in University of Washington’s Computer Science and Engineering Department. Students who will receive a bachelor’s degree by June 2013 will be eligible for the position. The fellowships were previously sponsored by the Yale Child Study Center, and students can find further details at:
Deadline: January 7, 2013
The Simons Fellowship in Computational Neuroscience will commence in July 2013 and is 2 years in duration. The training experience will involve developing methods for the analysis of visual scanning and eye-tracking data, computational models of visual salience, and data visualization techniques, all with the aim of advancing the understanding of autism and efforts at early diagnosis.
