Postdoctoral position

• Combine theory, experiment, or computational approaches to investigate how ring-attractor-like dynamics are expressed in real organisms and how they shape behavior
• Possible avenues include immersive virtual-reality experiments with insects, development of new models of neural or embodied dynamics, comparative analyses across species, or novel methodological approaches aligned with the central questions

• PhD in biology, physics, engineering, or a related field
• Demonstrated research experience or training in areas such as dynamical systems, bifurcation theory, and animal behavior
• Prior experience with neural field models, attractor neural networks, or related approaches is desirable

Prior experience with neural field models, attractor neural networks, or related approaches

• Interesting job in an open-minded team
• Responsible and varied workplace in a growing interdisciplinary and international research institute
• Payment made in accordance with experience and qualification and the collective agreement for the public service (TVöD-Bund)
