Open Positions

We are always looking for highly motivated graduate students, postdoc candidates, well-prepared, research-oriented undergraduates, and collaborators. Preferred areas of expertise may differ for different positions and will also depend on the ongoing projects in the lab, which include statistical signal/image/information processing, computational modeling, machine learning, and computational neuroscience. If you are interested in joining or working with our lab, please contact Dr. Nategh by email.

NOTE FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS:
Graduate students who are interested in working in our research group should first apply to one of the related graduate programs at the University of Utah (e.g. ECE, CS, Mathematics, Neuroscience, Bioengineering, etc.), and mention my name in their application. For more information about the application process and requirements please visit your target department's webpage. If you are already at the U, please send me an email to arrange a time to meet.
