Post-doctoral position in visual perception or visuo-motor control
Center for Visual Science, University of Rochester
The lab of David Knill at the University of Rochester has post-doctoral positions open in two areas: 3D visual perception and visuo-motor control. The lab uses both psychophysical and computational methods to study how humans use visual information to perceive the 3D layouts of scenes and to guide goal-directed hand movements. Problems of particular focus in the lab are Bayesian, robust sensory cue integration, causal modeling applied to perception, statistical learning applied both to perception and motor control, feedback control of hand movements, and the role of visual short-term memory in planning hand movements in complex scenes. The lab has available a large stable of technical tools to support these studies include real-time motion tracking systems, eye trackers, a 180 degree field of view display and a haptic-visual virtual reality environment incorporating two Phantom haptic feedback devices and a large-field of view stereoscopic display. Interested applicants should send CVs and contacts for references to David Knill at knill@cvs.rochester.edu.
