PhD and Postdoc positions are available at the Brain and Language Lab
(www.brainandlanguagelab.org)
at the University of Geneva. The PhD position is for 3-4 years, and the postdoc position is for up to 4 years,
and salary will be commensurate with experience.
Several projects will be done in collaborations with Maastricht University and with the University of Vienna.
Applicants should have a strong interest in human brain imaging, and in language function and dysfunction, and should have one of (or a combination of) the following profiles:
1. Candidates with a degree in
Biomedical Engineering, Computational Neuroscience, or a related field, and with solid experience in computational modelling (i.e. encoding / decoding) of fMRI data, machine learning, statistics and programming. Projects will include
extensions of our recent work on the neural encoding of acoustic information in speech sounds (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31285622)
to higher levels of language processing.
2. Candidates with a degree in Cognitive Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering and/or Psychology, with
solid experience in the acquisition and analysis of brain functional (and structural) imaging data. Projects will include real-time fMRI neurofeedback training studies, focusing on different levels/aspects
of language learning.
Candidates for either position (depending on experience) will also have the opportunity to become involved in the analysis of data from a 7T myelin mapping (R1) study.
The positions are available immediately, and applications will be considered until the position is filled. Applicants should send me their CV, a statement of research interests, and the names and contact information for 2-3 references, at Narly.Golestani@xxxxxxxx. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
