[FieldTrip] Postdoctoral position in Decision Neuroscience (OPM-MEG)

[Konstantinos Tsetsos]

The Institute of Neuroscience at Trinity College Dublin invite applications for a postdoctoral position in the Irrationality Lab, led by Prof. Konstantinos Tsetsos.

The position is funded by the ERC Consolidator Grant “The Dynamics of Attribute Weighting in Multiattribute Choice” (DYNATT). The project investigates how the brain dynamically shapes and revises preferences during decision-making. We will combine OPM-MEG, computational modelling, and behavioural paradigms to decode multiattribute preferences at high temporal resolution and uncover the neural mechanisms underlying preference variability. This is an ambitious multidisciplinary 5-year project at the interface of behavioural, neural, and computational sciences.

Selection will be based on scientific excellence, publication record, and strong hands-on experience with experimental and analytical methods in cognitive neuroscience.

The successful candidate will contribute to establishing and running MEG experiments using a new OPM-MEG system (with concurrent EEG and eye-tracking), analyse neural and behavioural data, and help develop the lab’s neuroimaging capabilities. The position offers the opportunity to work in a collaborative research environment at TCIN and to benefit from mentorship within a leading ERC-funded research programme in decision neuroscience. Opportunities for research visits to partner laboratories across Europe will be encouraged and supported.

The start date and duration of the appointment are flexible and can be adjusted to suit the candidate and project needs. Salaries follow the IUA postdoctoral scales (currently approx. €45,000–€65,000 depending on experience), with scope for appointment at higher points of the scale for more senior candidates (€65,000–€80,000). We also welcome expressions of interest from experienced researchers interested in short-term contracts and focused contributions.

Applications will be reviewed until the position is filled.
Informal inquiries are welcome.

To apply please send a detailed CV (including the contact information of two referees) and a cover letter to tsetsosk at tcd.ie <mailto:tsetsosk at tcd.ie>
