Description

We invite applications for a master's thesis for contributing to advance control theory to brain networks to simulate treatment effects (e.g., medication or neurostimulation). The project has a strong methodological focus and touches topics of neural data analysis and optimization. The project will be executed in collaboration with engineers from the University of Stuttgart, offering opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration.

Following tasks will be performed:
•    Development of model extensions of control theory
•    Analyses of models’ parameters and properties
•    Implementation of models in established and reputable state-of-the art toolboxes for parameter estimation and statistical inference

Prerequisites: Programming expertise expected, preferably completed courses on computational neuroscience or on bioinformatics, preference will be given to students with a computational or mathematical background

If you plan to apply, please submit a short statement of motivation (why my group, why this topic) and your CV with a transcript of study records to "mail at computationalneurology.com"
