PhD in Modelling Micromagnetism and Permanent Magnets, Technical University of Denmark
This PhD position at DTU Energy will constitute one part in a unique research project where we want to model permanent magnets on the microstructural level to understand why their resistance to opposing magnetic fields, their so-called coercivity, is much lower than theoretically predicted. The coercivity is the magnetic field that the permanent magnet can withstand before it flips and points in the opposite direction. We will study this phenomenon by realizing a novel and fast computational model built on an existing computational framework for magnetic field calculation written in Fortran.

NIH-funded Postdoctoral Position at the Italian Institute of Technology
I am seeking to hire one or more postdoctoral scientists to research with me and my Neural Computation laboratory at the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia.
The project, funded by a Brain Initiative multi-PI RO1 Grant from the National Institute of Health, will be performed in collaboration with my experimental collaborators Christopher Harvey (Harvard Medical School) and Wei-Chung Lee (Children’s Hospital). The proposed computational research will use data-driven models of recurrent neural networks and information-theoretic methods to analyze functional activity of hundreds of neurons recorded during cognitive tasks, together with anatomical electron-microscopy data collected from the same subjects and brain regions. The aim of the project is to establish novel and firm relationships between the anatomical structure of a cortical microcircuit and its neural population coding function.
The laboratory offers a wide range of interdisciplinary expertise in computational neuroscience, including both advanced neural analysis techniques and neural network modeling. The laboratory also offers a thriving, well-funded and ambitious research environment with extensive international collaborations and ample opportunities for advanced training and personal scientific growth.
We seek candidates holding a PhD in a numerate or neuroscientific discipline, with a solid computational background and a keen interest in neuroscience. They must be highly motivated and creative individuals who want to work in a dynamic, multi-disciplinary research environment and be willing to interact with both experimental and theoretical neuroscientists.
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to conduct research at either the IIT in Italy, or at the IIT outstation at Harvard Medical School, in Boston, depending on the nature of the agreed research and on personal preferences.
