Postdoctoral Research Associate, Neuroscience

The Maurer laboratory at the University of Arizona is seeking a postdoctoral research associate to develop theoretical and computational approaches for understanding how biological neural networks organize activity through nonlinear dynamics, feedback, and constraint. The role involves analyzing large-scale electrophysiological and behavioral datasets to develop mechanistic frameworks that generate discriminating predictions and can be tested against experimental interventions. The position is intentionally interdisciplinary, welcoming candidates from control theory, nonlinear dynamical systems, applied mathematics, engineering, physics, and computational science.
