[FieldTrip] PhD-Position in Multisensory Integration (Charité Berlin)

[Julian Keil]

The Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin invites applications for a PhD position  
A project grant of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), entitled “Predicting the multisensory future: Role of neuronal connectivity for integrative information processing across modalities“ will fund the currently open position (initially 24 months). The main objective of this project is to examine neural markers of multisensory integration and to test a new hypothesis that considers dynamic interplay of synchronized neural populations as a key to multisensory processes (Senkowski et al. 2008, TINS; Keil et al. 2013, Cerebral Cortex). The studies within this program include EEG, TMS and possibly other neuroimaging methods. Multisensory processes will be examined in a series of experiments requiring both bottom-up and top-down processing.

Applicants should have a background in psychology, medicine, biology, physics, engineering, or neuroscience. Basic experience in human EEG or MEG studies, Matlab programming skills, as well as basic German language skills for interacting with the study participants are prerequisites for the position. An interest in neurophysiological studies including clinical populations is expected.

Applicants are asked to submit their CV, a motivation letter including information about a possible starting date, 2 names of referees, and documentation of relevant qualifications (e.g., copies of diplomas and/or transcripts of grades) until April 30, 2014, electronically to: julian.keil at charite.de
