SNI FACULTY SEARCHES
It’s an exciting time for SNI, as we are in the midst of the Institute’s first two faculty searches. We are focusing this year on the strategic interface between neuroscience, engineering and the physical sciences. One recruitment is in the field of neuro-engineering, and is being led jointly by Miriam Goodman and Kwabena Boahen. The other is in theoretical and computational neuroscience and is being led by Brian Wandell. The entire Stanford neuroscience community is encouraged to attend the seminars of the wonderful candidates visiting in the next few months.
