15 PhD positions in physics, materials science, chemistry, computer science, mathematics, artificial intelligence and/or electrical engineering

Apply for a position in our exciting research on "Materials for Neuromorphic Circuits" (MANIC), and become part of the next generation of neuromorphic experts! Funded by the European Commission through the Horizon 2020 Marie Sklodowska-Curie ITN Programme, the MANIC network offers 15 high level fellowships for joint research on new materials for cognitive applications. The most talented and motivated students will be selected for advanced multidisciplinary research training, preferably starting July 2020. The scientific aim of MANIC is to synthesize materials that can function as networks of neurons and synapses by integrating conductivity, plasticity and self-organization. Successes in deep learning show that the paradigm of neuromorphic computing is very attractive.
