PhD Studentship in Computational Neuroscience and Biomimetic Robotics
An EPSRC-supported PhD studentship is available to study computational models of the brain systems governing gaze control and visual attention.
The proposed project is associated with a substantial, multi-centre EPSRC grant Integrative computation for autonomous agents: a novel approach based on the vertebrate brain http://www.abrg.group.shef.ac.uk/reverb/public/. This multidisciplinary project is shared between the University of Sheffield, other academic collaborators, and an industrial partner - BAE Systems. The studentship is rare opportunity for someone to work as part of a large team of internationally recognised partners.
The project will implement biologically constrained models of motion processing on an existing robotic eye-head’ platform and presented with wide-field visual stimuli on a large immersive display (of the kind used in flight simulators). The modelling and stimulus generation will require competent programming skills preferably in C/C++ and Matlab.
The studentship is open to applicants resident in the UK for at least 3 years, who have a first class or upper second class degree in engineering, mathematics or the physical sciences. A stipend will be paid at or above the EPSRC’s standard rate (GBP 12,300 in 2007-8) for a maximum of four years.
