The Physiological Acoustics Lab (http://escabilab.uconn.edu) at the University of Connecticut seeks applicants for a postdoctoral position in systems and computational neuroscience. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES We are seeking highly motivated and creative applicants who can lead a project on Misophonia, a psychological and behavioral disorder in which individuals experience adverse emotional reactions to specific sounds (“auditory triggers”). The broad project goal is to develop computational models of hearing and perception that are fitted to human perceptual measurements and that can be used to characterize and diagnose misophonia. The models will also be used to develop sound processing tools to remove and de-emphasize auditory triggers (e.g., with headphones) and improve participant outcomes. The project will use a variety of approaches, including human perceptual experiments, machine learning, digital signal processing, and computational models of hearing. UConn has a vibrant neuroscience community, and there are opportunities for collaboration between departments, institutes, and Universities involved in the project. The primary appointment is in Biomedical Engineering and/or Electrical Engineering. The work will be conducted in collaboration with the Behavioral Neuroscience program in the Psychological Sciences department (Ian Stevenson), the Electrical and Computer Engineering/Biomedical Engineering departments at the University of Connecticut (Monty Escabí), and the Connecticut Institute for Brain and Cognitive Sciences. MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS A PhD in Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering, Computational Neuroscience, or a related field is required. Experience with experimental design, data analysis, and/or modeling. PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS Previous experience, education, or general proven knowledge in hearing or speech and language sciences. Interdisciplinary research experience in computational and systems neuroscience with prior research experience in human behavior, animal behavior and/or brain physiology. A strong analytic background, particularly in modeling neural systems and analyzing large datasets. Experience with acoustic signal processing, sound recognition, and machine learning. APPOINTMENT TERMS This is a full-time, 12-month position funded through the Misophonia Research Fund on a yearly basis. Salaries follow the post-doctoral scale and are based on experience.
