Announcing a fellowship funding opportunity through a collaborative
US-French NIDA/INSERM agreement. A recent call for proposals will allow a
US postdoctoral fellow, once funded, to come and work in France. The
Group for Neural Theory at the Institute for the Study of Cognition,
Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris, France has been chosen as a potential
host and will sponsor an application from a qualified candidate.
The fellow will work in the group of Boris Gutkin, which focuses on
computational modelling of addictive processes. Potential project
include circuit level models of drug action in the dopaminergic brain
system (nicotine, alcohol and interactions), system levels models for
drug affects on the interaction between the pre-frontal cortex and the
basal ganglia, computational modeling of cognitive control and drug
induced pathologies, computational models of drug induced homeostatic
pathology and its cognitive consequences. Eventual project will be need
to be developed together with the fellowship candidate at the time of
application.
