Dear all,
there is a job opening for a PostDoc with our colleague and collaborator
Gerhard Jocham here at the Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf. It's
an ERC funded project which will also include MEG, i.e. you'll be also
working with us. :-)
Please apply and/or spread the word!
Cheers,
Markus
Postdoctoral Researcher position on decision making and learning,
Institute of Experimental Psychology, Heinrich Heine University
Düsseldorf, Germany
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position for two years on an
ERC-funded project in the Biological Psychology of Decision Making Group
headed by Gerhard Jocham. The lab investigates the neural and
computational mechanisms of reward-guided learning and decision making
in humans. The project is focussed on the relationship between
neurochemistry, cortical dynamics, and decision making. This will be
investigated using a combination of MEG, pharmacological intervention,
and computational modelling. The successful candidate is expected to
conduct their own experiments, but there is also the option to work on
already existing data sets (MEG and behaviour).
We are seeking enthusiastic candidates with a strong interest in
decision making. Applicants should have a PhD in psychology,
neuroscience, or a related field. Demonstrable experience with either
MEG or EEG and good programming skills (e.g. Matlab, Python) are
essential. You will be thorough, efficient, a good communicator and
enjoy both working independently and as part of a dynamic team. An
excellent command of English is expected.
The Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, in collaboration with nearby
Research Centre Jülich, provides an excellent environment for
cutting-edge neuroscience. Being embedded in the local neuroscience
community, you will additionally benefit from the interactions with
other researchers in the departments of psychology, medicine, and the
Research Centre Jülich.
Pay scale will be (subject to the applicant’s qualification) public
sector pay grade TV-L 13. Starting date is flexible, but no later than 1
Dec 2023.
Applications should include a brief (max. 1 page) statement of research
experience/interests and academic achievements, a CV, certificates, and
names of at least 2 referees (please refrain from including letters of
recommendation). Please send your application electronically as a single
PDF file to Gerhard Jocham (gerhard.jocham at hhu.de). Applications will be
considered on a rolling basis until the post is filled.
