7. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Kevin T. Crofton Department of Aerospace and Ocean Engineering at Virginia Tech is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to work on two projects. The first project, approximately 2/3 time with Prof. Chris Roy as the primary collaborator, involves applying machine learning tools to improve computational fluid dynamic (CFD) predictions of hypersonic aerodynamics and heating. This project will involve research in Favre-Averaged Navier-Stokes (FANS) turbulence models, aided by machine learning, to predict surface heating, skin friction, and flow separation for hypersonic flows. The second project, approximately 1/3 time with Prof. Todd Lowe as the primary collaborator, involves supporting ongoing and future CFD model validation experiments including subsonic smooth-body turbulent flow separation.

9. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Our lab investigates the neural mechanisms in the cortex responsible for auditory-vocal integration. We employ a multi-disciplinary approach that includes bioacoustics, behavioral training, multi-electrode electrophysiology, and modeling to understand the role of the auditory cortex to process complex natural sounds and its connections with vocal production centers. We use an auditory specialist, echolocating bats, making it possible to directly measure how auditory perception of complex sounds is altered when discreet cell types within auditory cortical microcircuits are reversibly manipulated. The position also will involve many opportunities for professional development.
