[alife] postdoc positions in cognitive/emotional robotics

[Tom Ziemke]

POSTDOC POSITIONS IN COGNITIVE/EMOTIONAL ROBOTICS
University of Skovde, Sweden

Two postdoc positions are available in our lab as part of a
four-year project on bio-inspired cognitive/emotional robotics
(Jan 2006 - Dec 2009), funded by an EU grant and coordinated by
our lab. The primary aim of the ICEA project is to develop a
cognitive systems architecture integrating cognitive, emotional
and bioregulatory mechanisms, based on the architecture of the
mammalian brain.

Ideal applicants would have a doctoral degree (soon) and research
experience/interests in some of these areas: embodied cognition,
adaptive robotics, artificial life, bio-inspired robotics, cognitive
modeling/architectures, computational neuroscience, neural networks,
robot learning, theories and models of emotion.

Starting date: early 2007 (as soon as possible).

Interested candidates should send a brief statement of research
interests, a CV and/or some representative publications to Tom
Ziemke (tom.ziemke at his.se).
