Hi EE Majors,
The
field of neuroscience no longer resides within the biology department,
but now has boarders that extend
into physics, math and engineering. This is due for the explicit need
for novel scientific approaches that include advanced analytical
approaches, software design, and robotics. Therefore, we are looking for
talented, self-motivated, forward-thinking students
in the Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering and CISE to join
our research investigating how the brain, complete with its own wiring
and software, is capable of memory, cognition, and adaptation. Responsibilities
will include software coding, data collection, organization, and
analysis and/or light-robotics for dynamic environmental control
(Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Experience with Servo and Stepper motors,
etc.). We are looking for students with a strong familiarity
with C/C++. Soldering skills and other languages (MATLAB, R,
Python) are a plus. We use rodent models so a general interest in
psychology and animal behavior is encouraged. This position would begin
in the Spring and require 10 hours a week (with research
credits possible).
Please send email of your CV and a list of course
grades in your major to "kennedy.p.jack@gmail.com"
titled "Application for Maurer Brain Research Position".

Engineering Week 2017
Hello,
My name is Katie Thorp and I am the Assistant
Director for the Benton Engineering Council’s Engineers Fair 2017. The
fair takes place at the Reitz Union on February 21-22, 2016 and we are
seeking students to share their research with a
poster for the symposium. Students who have projects with an
interactive element or display will be given preference. In order to
reach as many students as possible, it would be helpful if you would
share the google form link below via your list-serve for
students to apply to present.
Sincerely,
University of Florida

All classes in NEB will be cancelled for the rest of the day
Dear ECE Students,
I just spoke with the Dean. All
classes in NEB will be cancelled for the rest of the day. They will resume as
usual tomorrow morning. Our students services office will alert all of our
students, grad and undergrad. Faculty can also email the students in their
courses to make sure they get the word.
Faculty, staff and grad students
will be able to return to their offices and labs in NEB as soon as the building
is reopened. Hopefully NEB will reopen by 3pm.
