复旦类脑智能科学与技术研究院

The Institute of Science and Technology for Brain-inspired Intelligence (ISTBI), Fudan University, Shanghai is seeking talented and motivated individuals to work as full time Post-doctoral Research Associates in a laboratory led by Prof. David Waxman (http://www.dwaxman.com/). 

Prof. David Waxman

David Waxman carries out research in quantitative biology. From 1985 to 2011 he was at the University of Sussex (UK), first in the Department of Physics, and then in the Department of Biology. Since 2011 he has been working full time in Fudan University, Shanghai, initially under the Chinese Government Foreign Expert Program. He has published research papers in well-known journals including Nature, Science, PNAS, Physical Review, Physical Review Letters, Genetics and Evolution. He has served on the Editorial Board of the journals Science, American Naturalist, Journal of Theoretical Biology and Theoretical Population Biology. In his research he uses methods from physics, mathematics, probability and statistics, along with computational methods, to construct and analyse mathematical models of biological systems.

Professor Waxman’s research typically concerns models involving randomness and stochasticity. He has wide interests, and most

recently has been working on the stochastic dynamics of genes in biological populations.

ISTBI

The Institute of Science and Technology for Brain-inspired Intelligence (ISTBI), is an interdisciplinary research institution of Fudan University,one of the leading universities in China. It was launched in March 2015.The predecessor of ISTBI was the Centre for Computational Systems Biology, founded in 2008 and was one of the first international and interdisciplinary research centres in Fudan University.

ISTBI covers several research fields including applied mathematics, statistics, computer science, informatics and neuroscience. The research carried out in ISTBI is interdisciplinary per se, with computational neuroscience playing a pivotal role.

ISTBI aims to make significant contributions in the development of basic theories, core algorithms and key frameworks for artificial intelligence. It also has the aims of developing intelligent diagnosis systems for brain diseases, and establishing principles of cognitive neuroscience. Ultimately, ISTBI will contribute to the innovation and the development of an intelligence-oriented society.
