The International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS) on Neuroscience of 
Communication: Function, Structure, and Plasticity is based at the Max 
Planck Institute (MPI) for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Leipzig, 
and the University of Leipzig (Germany). The IMPRS also involves the MPI 
for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig, and the Institute of Cognitive 
Neuroscience at University College London, UK. The graduate programme 
will start with the Summer Semester 2012 at the University of Leipzig (1 
April, 2012).

The IMPRS on Neuroscience of Communication: Function, Structure, and 
Plasticity offers a unique interdisciplinary graduate programme to study 
the functional, structural, and plastic bases of human communication 
through an integrative and interdisciplinary approach. Its overriding 
goal is to train PhD students in multidisciplinary aspects involved in 
communicative action. Besides behavioural work, the programme draws on 
elaborate modern imaging techniques, including a 7-Tesla MRI scanner and 
a 306-channel MEG system.

The school invites applications for PhD scholarships.

Successful candidates will be accepted into one of the following four 
modules of the school:
(1)Verbal Communication: Language
(2)Foundation of social cognition and emotions
(3)Neuroscience: Basic and Clinical
(4)Methods: Physics of neuroimaging and signal processing.

More information on content, structure, and faculty of the programme can 
be found at:
http://imprs-neurocom.mpg.de

Requirement for successful candidates for the PhD programme is a 
Master's (or qualified equivalent) degree in disciplines like computer 
science, linguistics, neurobiology, neurology, physics, psychiatry, 
psychology, or related fields. Candidates near to completion may also 
submit applications, indicating the expected date of completion.

Further requirements for successful candidates include:
outstanding academic performance.
excellent oral and written English language skills.
aptitude for original, independent, and creative work.
(desirable) experience conducting research, preferrably with results 
published or submitted for publication.

The application must be supported by a degree and school certificate, 
academic transcripts, a CV, two names and email addresses of academic 
referees willing to support the candidate's application, and a personal 
statement explaining the candidate's motivation and reasons for pursuing 
a PhD at the IMPRS. Applications should indicate the preferred research 
cluster into which the candidate wishes to be accepted.

All admitted students receive financial aid in the form of a scholarship 
for the duration of three years. The language of the IMPRS is English. 
Visit www.leipzig.de for information on living in Leipzig/Germany, in 
the heart of Europe. We seek to increase the number of women in those 
areas where they are under-represented and therefore explicitly 
encourage women to apply. We are committed to employing more individuals 
with disabilities and especially encourage them to apply.
