08 Feb '24

Postdoctoral Fellowship Opportunity From Nei l Neary <neil.neary(a)ucalgary.ca <mailto:neil.neary@ucalgary.ca> > Cc: Jackie MacDiarmid <jackie.macdiarmid(a)ucalgary.ca <mailto:jackie.macdiarmid@ucalgary.ca> > Just connecting with you about the CNS program (https://www.albertaneuro.ca/funding-programs/canadian-neuroanalytics-schola rs-program/). My organization is the administrator of this program, which is new and honestly quite novel. We're looking to fund 20 postdocs over the next 4 years across Canada for $70k/yr for up to 2 years each to work in neuroscience teams applying the latest in AI and machine learning to neuroscience data. I've cc'ed in my colleague, Jackie MacDiarmid, who is the PM for this project. She can fill yourself or someone else on the team with all the relevant details. We'd love to see this promoted in the U of M data science community - selfishly, I'd really like to see Manitoba represented in this cohort!
