The Department of Information Engineering and Computer Science
(DISI)<br>
at the University of Trento and its research partner Fondazione
Bruno<br>
Kessler (FBK), invites applications for 2 open PhD positions in the<br>
area of Machine Learning for Neuroscience, both of them covered by<br>
scholarship.<br>
<br>
The deadline for applications is March 16, 2011, before 13:00, CET.<br>
<br>
The PhD research program aims at carrying out research activity on<br>
machine learning methodologies for neuroscientific data analysis.
The<br>
main goal is design and deploy machine learning algorithms for<br>
neuroimaging-based cognitive neuroscience investigations. The
research<br>
effort focuses on two specific tasks: brain decoding and brain<br>
mapping. The challenge is to design effective computational methods<br>
for multivariate pattern analysis.<br>
<br>
The PhD research program will take place at NILab, the<br>
Neuroinformatics Laboratory raised as a joint initiative of
Fondazione<br>
Bruno Kessler and the Center for Mind/Brain Sciences of the
University<br>
of Trento.<br>
<br>
The grant amount is around 13.500 euro per year before tax. Students<br>
who win the PhD scholarship will have the tuition fee waived.<br>
Additional support from the Province of Trento is available for<br>
accomodation, which amounts approximately 1250 euro per year.<br>
<br>
Exceptional candidates may obtain an additional internship grant to<br>
cover the interleaving period between notification of acceptance,<br>
April 2011, and the beginning of PhD Scholarship, November 2011.<br>
<br>
Details on the PhD School and a link to the online application are<br>
provided below.<br>
