Postdoctoral fellow

We continually consider postdoc applications. Primary topics of interest are perception, intuitive physics, and planning (and their intersections). We are especially interested in candidates with integrative perspectives --- e.g., building computational models to make contact with measurements and phenomena in psychophysics and neuroscience, ideally simultaneously. 

If you are interested please reach out to Ilker (ilker.yildirim@yale.edu) with the subject line “Postdoc application” and include a brief description of your previous research accomplishments and future research interests, as well as an up to date CV.

Graduate Students

We are looking to hire motivated graduate students this coming cycle. If you are interested, please email Ilker with an up to date CV, a description of your research interests and how you see your interests fit in the lab’s research. We take applications through the Psychology, Interdepartmental Neuroscience, and the Statistics & Data Science graduate programs.

Postbac Research Associate
