[NeuroFedora] Fwd: [FSL] Opportunities for experienced modellers to join a collaborative NSF-funded open source software development project

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Tal Yarkoni <tyarkoni(a)utexas.edu&gt; Date: Fri, Oct 2, 2020 at 16:21 Subject: [FSL] Opportunities for experienced modellers to join a collaborative NSF-funded open source software development project To: <FSL(a)jiscmail.ac.uk&gt; An NSF-funded multi-investigator collaboration is seeking individuals to help develop a standardized format for exchanging computational models among neuroscience, cognitive science and machine learning. The project was recently funded by NSF’s Convergence Accelerator Program, and involves Princeton Neuroscience Institute; The University of Texas at Austin; University College London; Yale Computer Science Department; and Intel Labs in collaboration with members of the broader community. We seek individuals who have considerable experience in computational modeling in cognitive science, neuroscience, and/or machine learning. Preference is for individuals with a PhD in a relevant discipline (Neuroscience, Cognitive Psychology and/or Computer Science), but others with sufficient demonstrated experience will be considered. Experience in Python is necessary, and experience in one or more existing modeling environments (e.g., NEURON, The Virtual Brain, NeuroML, Emergent, Nengo, ACT-R, PyTorch and/or TensorFlow) is preferred. Involvement can be remote. Interested individuals should contact Jonathan Cohen (jdc(a)princeton.edu), Padraig Gleeson (p.gleeson(a)ucl.ac.uk), or Tal Yarkoni (tyarkoni(a)utexas.edu). -- Tal Yarkoni, Ph.D. Research Associate Professor Department of Psychology University of Texas at Austin https://talyarkoni.org ------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the FSL list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=FSL&A=1
