Postdoctoral Fellows

We are hiring postdoctoral fellows to study the organization and function of auditory corticofugal projection systems in behaving mice. We are looking for individuals with an excellent record of research achievements and expertise at the intersection of two or more of the following areas: electrophysiology, two-photon imaging, quantitative behavior, and computational neuroscience. This position will remain opened until filled.

Please email Ross directly (rsw@pitt.edu) with a brief introduction, CV, and the names and contact information of three references.


Graduate Students

We are always interested to hear from enthusiastic students looking to join the lab. The Williamson Lab will be accepting students beginning in the fall semester of 2019. Interested students can reach out to Ross directly (rsw@pitt.edu) with a brief introduction and description of research interests.


Undergraduates

The Williamson Lab is looking for several highly motivated undergraduate researchers. We are specifically looking for undergraduates who would be interested in carrying out research in either of the following:

1) anatomical viral tracing projects to study the downstream/upstream targets of specific cortical cell-types

or

2) utilizing new machine learning techniques to extract features from videos of awake mice, that can be subsequently correlated with optical and electrophysiological signals.

Interested applicants should send a resume and cover letter to Ross directly (rsw@pitt.edu).
