FMRI DECODING OF CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS PROCESSING 2 Postdoctoral positions available at the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Berlin Two full-time postdoctoral positions are available from now for a period of 3 years in the group of Prof. John-Dylan Haynes at the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Berlin. Research focuses on functional brain imaging of conscious and unconscious human cognitive processing in the domains of perception, attention and executive control. A variety of methods are used including behavioural and psychophysical measurements, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and EEG/MEG recordings in humans. Further information on our research can be found on our website (http://www.cbs.mpg.de/~haynes). The specific projects will build on previous work using multivariate pattern recognition applied to human brain responses to decode conscious and unconscious processing in various cognitive domains. Experience in cognitive neuroscience and neuroimaging and familiarity with neuroimaging analysis platforms (such as SPM or BrainVoyager) are desirable, as well as mathematical and scripting skills (especially MATLAB). The positions require a PhD in a relevant field, such as neuroscience, cognitive science, cognitive psychology or computer science/mathematics. The successful candidate will play a key role in designing, conducting and analysing experiments and will work as part of a multi-disciplinary research team. The position offers excellent training in advanced aspects of neuroimaging (such as cortical flattening, retinotopic mapping, connectivity analysis, multivariate decoding, information-based brain mapping). Please direct applications per email before 15th June to Margret Franke ([log in to unmask]).
