Subject: Connectionists: PhD in Complex Dynamical Systems - Cognitive System
	Theory

Fellow Computational and Theoretical Neuroscientists
       and Cognitive-System Scientists

I would like to brink your attention our 
PhD-program in
Complex Dynamical Systems - Cognitive System Theory

  At the Institute of Theoretical Physics,
  University of Frankfurt am Main,

  Field(s): cognitive systems, complex systems,
            neural networks, adaptive dynamical systems,
            theoretical neuroscience

  Application deadline: January 6, 2008

  Contact: Prof. Claudius Gros

  E-mail: secretariate[@]itp.uni-frankfurt.de

  Address: Institute for Theoretical Physics,
           J.W. Goethe University Frankfurt,

  Job description:
  Applications are invited for a PhD position,
  with a BAT IIa/2 salary, equivalent to about
  1000 Euro monthly.

  Complex systems in the form of dynamical
  gene-regulation networks constitute the basis
  of all livings. On a higher level it constitutes
  a central challenge to understand the brain and
  to develop a comprehensive theory of artificial
  cognitive systems in terms of structured dynamical
  networks.
  The field of research involves the development of
  the Frankfurt Cognitive System Platform for an
  autonomous general-purpose cognitive system based
  on a meta-network of self-adapting generalized
  neural networks.

  The candidates should  have a Diploma/Master in
  natural sciences, cognitive sciences or informatics
  with an excellent academic track record and good
  computational skills. Experience or strong interest
  in the fields of artificial or biological cognitive
  systems are expected. The degree of scientific research
  experience is expected to be on the level of a
  German Diploma/Master.

  The appointments will start in early 2008, for
  up to three years.

  Interested applicants should submit a curriculum vitae and
  arrange for two letters of reference to be sent to the
  address below.
