Postdoctoral Fellowships in Model-based Cognitive Neuroscience at Vanderbilt Department of Psychology Vanderbilt Vision Research Center We eagerly seek postdoctoral fellows to join research projects in model-based cognitive neuroscience, developing and testing computational models of visual cognition that connect behavior and brain data.
Psychology | |
Fellows will join an ongoing collaboration of Thomas Palmeri, Jeffrey Schall, and Gordon Logan at Vanderbilt using cognitive and neural models to understand perceptual decision making, cognitive control, and visual attention. Successful models predict details of observed behavior and are constrained by or predict neurophysiological, electrophysiological, and brain imaging data in human and non-human primates. Fellows also have opportunities to join a collaboration of Thomas Palmeri, Isabel Gauthier, and their colleagues using combinations of cognitive, psychometric, and deep learning models to understand object recognition, categorization, visual learning, and perceptual expertise and to explain individual differences in behavior and brain data. |
