COGNITIVE ENGINEERING RESEARCHER at ONERA
ONERA is the French national aerospace research center. The present
position is opened in the “Human-System Integration” team in Salon de
Provence. The HSI team is a small (6 permanent peoples, 5 PhD students
and 2 postdocs) but growing team. The HSI team is specialized in the
design of innovative human-machine interface. It aims to make models of
human cognition, perception, multisensory integration and action control
and use these models to propose design principles and evaluation
methodology. The team follows a multidisciplinary approach and the core
competencies include: Cognitive Engineering, Computational
Neurosciences, Cognitive Psychology, Human Factors, Electronics and
Computer Science. Our collaborations include academic partners in
several domains - aeronautic, cognitive science, neuro sciences and
cognitive psychology, medicine but also Applied Research institute and
industrial partners.
You will complete and extend the team abilities. You will be a key
contributor to the Human Systems Interaction research area within the
HIS team. As a research scientist in Human-Machine Cognition, you’ll be
tackling the scientific challenges to integrate new insights in
cognitive engineering and computational neurosciences to the design of
human machine interface. This involves both applied and basic science.
Your primary task involves applying neurosciences knowledge,
methodologies, and paradigm to the design of human-machine systems. You
will be expected to conduct high-level innovative research, including
the publication of research and research supervision. You will
collaborate with academia to identify and answer novel research
questions, performing research of factors both in isolation and as part
of more ecologically valid system. You will also collaborate with
industrial partner to perform more applied project. Crucially, you will
contribute to initiate new funded research as well as to expand,
complement, and collaborate with existing research programs.
To be considered for this position, the successful candidate must
possess a Ph.D. (by the start of the appointment) in Cognitive
Engineering, Computational and Cognitive Neurosciences, Applied
Psychology, or Human Factors. Candidates are particularly sought with
research interests in one or more of the following areas: perception and
multisensory integration, physiological markers of attention/vigilance,
models of attention and consciousness, impact of stress and fatigue on
human performance. Strong theoretical background in cognitive or
computational neurosciences is mandatory. Expertise in handling and
analyzing physiological data (EEG, fNIRS, ECG, ..) will be also critical.
The position is anticipated to begin in mid-2017. It is a permanent
position.
