*Call:*
Are you fascinated by the intriguing intersection of Computational
Neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence? Do you find yourself
captivated by groundbreaking concepts such as neurotech, neuromorphic
computing, and many-person neuroscience, among others? Are you intrigued
by the vast potential of artificial intelligence in the realm of
biomedical data modeling? If yes, we invite you to consider applying for
one of the three exciting PhD positions available at the University of
Rome Tor Vergata.
In our enriching research and training program, you can delve into a
wide spectrum of innovative domains ranging from Neurotech to Biomedical
imaging and simulation, novel drug delivery systems and neuromodulation
technology, physiological systems modeling, the future of AI-based
radiation oncology planning, and HCP, among others. The possibilities
for exploration, growth, and discovery are limitless, with opportunities
to engage in both computational and experimental work tailored to align
with your unique profile and interests.
*Activities:*
We are looking for enthusiastic, result-oriented graduates or
postgraduates who are eager to immerse themselves in these pioneering
research fields. Join our interdisciplinary team
(https://fismed.uniroma2.it/) to contribute to a dynamic environment
that thrives on collaboration, teamwork, and intellectual curiosity.
As part of our team, you will engage in a range of activities from
grant-writing and drafting of scientific publications to occasionally
teaching at the university level. Moreover, you'll get the opportunity
to collaborate at national and international levels and tackle
challenging research problems that span across the physical,
mathematical, computational, basic and clinical sciences.
We are proud recipients of funding from renowned organizations such as
the European Commission (Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe, EIC), the
Italian National Ministry of Health, The Italian Association for Cancer
research (AIRC), the US Department of Defense (DOD), and the National
Institutes of Health (NIH), as well as private institutions and foundations.
*Profile:*
You hold a Master's degree in Computational Neuroscience, Artificial
Intelligence, Applied Physics, Computer Science, Computer/Electrical
Engineering, or a related discipline.
You have a robust understanding of dynamical systems theory,
computational neuroscience and/or AI.
Desirable but not necessary: experience with neuroscience data, control
systems, neural differential equations, and other related fields.
You have a strong background in mathematics and Python programming
skills, and are familiar with advanced machine learning libraries.
You are passionate about research and exploration in the field.
*Application:*
To apply, send a brief motivation letter and a Curriculum Vitae to Prof.
Nicola Toschi ([email protected]) and cc Dr. Andrea Duggento
([email protected]). More information about our PhD programme
