I have been asked to forward the following to the list
Best regards,
Felix
The "Neurocognition of Decision-Making Group" at the Max-Planck-Institute
for Human Development in Berlin, Germany
(http://www.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/snwg/) invites applications for a
postdoctoral position. We are a young, interdisciplinary team investigating
mechanisms of decision-making in the human brain with a combination of
neuroimaging (MRI, MEG, EEG, simultaneous EEG-fMRI) and computational
modeling. The good infrastructure (behavioral lab, EEG, MRI) together with
the opportunity to interact and collaborate with colleagues from the MPI and
the large neuroscience community in Berlin contribute to a stimulating and
productive research environment. A successful applicant will need to have a
PhD in a field related to cognitive neuroscience (e.g. informatics, machine
learning, neuroscience, medicine, psychology). Applicants should further
have a strong background in the design and statistical analysis of fMRI
experiments. Additional experience in computational/mathematical modeling
would be helpful, but it is not required.
The 3-year position is part of an interdisciplinary project on instrumental
behavior, which tries to gain insight in control and learning processes by
combining fMRI, computational modeling, and genetics. The Federal Ministry
of Education and Research (BMBF) funds the project. Salary will be according
to "EG 13 TVöD", formerly BAT Ib/IIa. The position is available from January
1st 2008 on.
To apply, please send an interest of research statement, a CV, (p)reprints,
and a list of 3 references to Hauke Heekeren: [log in to unmask],
Or arrange to meet Hauke at the Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience.
