@CIMeC, University of Trento, in Italy, as part of an Italian FIS3 starting grant. 
TOPIC: Investigating predictive neural representations in naturalistic settings using MEG-based dynamic RSA

The candidate will join an experienced and collaborative double-lab team (led by 2 PIs with FIS grants) with strong expertise in predictive processing in naturalistic dynamic input using M/EEG. We hold weekly lab meetings, biweekly journal clubs and biweekly M/EEG user meetings. Besides this vibrant research environment, Trentino is an area filled with natural beauty with lots of outdoor activities such as hiking, climbing, swimming in lakes and skiing. Additionally, you are only a train ride away from cultural cities such as Verona, Venice, Milano or Bologna.

Requirements:

- MSc degree, ideally in cog neurosci with experience in neuroimaging (M/EEG or fMRI, MVPA/RSA), or related field
- Strong programming skills (e.g., Matlab or Python)
- Very good English skills, a high level of motivation, reliability, independence, and enthusiasm to work in a team.
