From: Julia Verhoef [j.verhoef at donders.ru.nl]
Subject: Cognitive Science: Post Doc, Donders Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging, Nijmegen, Netherlands

 
University or Organization: Donders Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging 
Job Location: Nijmegen, Netherlands 
Web Address: https://www.languageininteraction.nl/
Job Title: Electrophysiology of perceptual inference for language and planning
Job Rank: Post Doc

Specialty Areas: Cognitive Science 


Description:

This sub-project functions within BQ5 via the combination of behavioural
experimental psychology, magnetoencephalography (MEG), and advanced data
analysis techniques in order to study the neural transformations that underlie
structure generation in language and in action planning. In addition to
designing, and executing your own experiments, you will also have the
opportunity to collaborate with other members of the highly interdisciplinary
Big Question 5 team and quite closely with the computational modelling
sub-project 3 of BQ5.

Requirements: 
- You are a creative and academically well-trained individual as evidenced by
high-quality publications in top-ranked scientific journals. 
- You should have obtained or are close to obtaining a PhD degree (or
equivalent) in the language sciences, cognitive neuroscience, computational
cognitive neuroscience, computer science, or psychology. 
- A strong background in M/EEG is necessary. Good programming skills (Matlab,
R, or Python), and prior experience with advanced analyses of neural data are
required. 
- You should have active interest in complex human cognitive functions, such
as language and conceptual reasoning, and in bridging experimental and
theoretical approaches. 
- Previous experience with multidisciplinary research is desirable and a
collaborative, open attitude with well-developed communication skills, and a
team-science interdisciplinary spirit are necessary. 

Applications from excellent candidates with a less than ideal profile will be
equally considered.

Embedding and Terms of employment: 
This position will be held at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and
Behaviour, Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging, Radboud University, Nijmegen,
The Netherlands. The position will be embedded in, and enriched by contact
with, the research groups of Andrea Martin and Saskia Haegens.
