<h3>Job description</h3>
The
Measuring and Modelling Electromagnetic Brain Activity at the F.C.
Donders Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging at Radboud University
Nijmegen (NL) seeks an outstanding postdoctoral researcher to
investigate adaptive brain computer interfaces. The researcher will
develop and apply methods being used for brain-computer interfaces. The
goal is to develop interfaces that online adapt to the state of the
subject characterized by the measured brain activity. The tools to be
applied are EEG (128 BrainProducts system) and/or MEG (275 sensor CTF
system) which are available at the F.C. Donders Centre. Experience with
EEG/MEG data acquisition/analysis and MATLAB programming are of added
value. <br>
<br>
The research project is part of the BrainGain project
(<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.braingain.nu">www.braingain.nu</a>).<br>
<br>
<h3>Requirements</h3>
We
encourage applicants to apply with a signal processing, cognitive
psychology or physiology background, but also applicants from other
disciplines if they want to contribute to an interdisciplinary research
project centered on functional neuroimaging in humans. Backgrounds of
interest include cognitive neuroscience, electrophysiology, neurology,
computational neuroscience and machine learning.<br>
<br>
<h3>Organization</h3>
The
mission of the F.C. Donders Centre for Cognitive Neuro-imaging (FCDC)
is to conduct cutting-edge fundamental and applied research in
cognitive neuroscience (i.e. human and animal cognition, as viewed from
the perspective of the brain). The FCDC houses a 275-channel MEG
system, TMS, high-density EEG , 1.5T, 3T and 7T MRI systems. <br>
Much of the rapid progress in this field is being driven by the
development of complex neuro-imaging techniques for measuring activity
in the human brain – an area in which the FCDC plays a leading role.
The research themes of the FCDC cover central cognitive functions, such
as perception, action, attention, memory, language, learning and
plasticity. The aim is to unravel these complex cognitive functions and
discover how they are represented in the brain. This is done by
identifying the networks of brain areas that are vital to each of these
functions.<br>
