Postdoctoral position in Neuromorphic, Neuroinspired Computing

University of California, San Diego

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering

Postdoctoral position is available for interested recent PhDs or postdocs. The position requires a PhD in Electrical Engineering.

The position will focus on development of new neuromorphic computing paradigms based on novel device technologies. Previous experience in two of below areas is required;

1)nanoscale device fabrication, 2)on chip integration, 3)neuromorphic circuits, 4)neural network models and machine learning algorithms.

This position will provide a great opportunity to EE PhDs to expand their research interests into various new computing applications and gain experience in design, development of new neuromorphic computing approaches in an interdisciplinary research group. Recent examples of our work:

Energy-efficient Mott activation neuron for full-hardware implementation of neural networks, Nature Nano Technology, 2021
