Position Description: The Bolser lab in the Department of Physiological Sciences (College of Veterinary Medicine) is seeking one or two part-time scientific computing programmers. The goal of this project is to expand the capabilities of software used to simulate large-scale, realistic, networks of neurons of the mammalian brainstem (https://neuronetexp.sourceforge.net/). In particular, this would ultimately facilitate the use of the software on the UF HiPerGator supercomputing cluster, and there will be opportunities to use machine learning and A.I. approaches to fit model parameters to related experimental data. Aside from familiarity with the tools and libraries below, some interest or experience with computational neuroscience and/or cellular biophysics is desirable.
Required Skills:
– Debian/Ubuntu Linux
– C/C++
– Python
