1 post-doc position is available to work with Domenica Bueti on a European Research Council funded project (“How the Human Brain Masters Time – BiT”) at the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) of Trieste (Italy).
The overarching goal of the project is understanding the neural mechanisms underlying our capacity of perceiving and representing time in the milliseconds range.
Specifically, the advertised position is to conduct fMRI experiments at 7T with the aim of investigating the relationship between spatial and temporal processing in visual cortices.
The candidates must have a PhD (or equivalent) in neuroscience or a related field, should have expertise in fMRI data analysis (univariate, multivariate and/or functional connectivity analysis), have competence in programming (Matlab, Python) and interest in the research topic. The successful candidate is expected to work within the general framework of the project, but also to actively contribute with his/her own ideas.
The starting date for these positions is flexible. Initially for one year, the positions can be extended up to one more year. Salary depends on experience and is based on SISSA regulations (~€28.000-30.000/annum, net).
To apply, please send to Domenica Bueti ([log in to unmask]) in a single pdf file, a CV, the contact information of two referees, a brief statement describing your personal qualifications and research interests. For more information see the time perception lab website (www.buetilab.com).
