[Eeglablist] Post-doc position available in BCI research / neural engineering

[Gerwin Schalk]

A post-doc position (funded for >2 years) is available immediately in 
the field of Brain-Computer Interface / Neural Engineering research.

The successful candidate will be part of the Brain-Computer Interface 
(BCI) Research and Development Program at the Wadsworth Center in 
Albany, New York. The work will primarily involve the use of signals 
recorded from the surface of the brain (electrocorticography (ECoG)) in 
humans to directly control output devices by thought alone and/or to 
decode specific aspects of human behavior (such as imagined speech) from 
brain signals. The successful applicant will also contribute to the 
success of BCI2000, a general-purpose BCI system that we have been 
developing since 2000. To date, we have provided BCI2000 to more than 
185 laboratories around the world.

Minimum qualifications are a demonstrated expertise in signal 
processing, in particular time series/spectral analyses, classification, 
and machine learning. The ideal applicant will also have a solid 
understanding of neuroscience and programming expertise in Matlab and C++.

Applicants should send a CV, a brief research statement, and 3 reference 
letters to Dr. Gerwin Schalk 
(http://www.wadsworth.org/resnres/bios/schalk.htm) at 
schalk at wadsworth.org. Reviews of applications will start immediately and 
continue until the position is filled.

The BCI program at the Wadsworth Center is recognized world-wide for its 
EEG- and ECoG-based BCI research. The Wadsworth Center has been named 
one of the "Best Places to Work for Postdocs" and one of the "Best 
Places to Work in Academia" by The Scientist magazine.
