[Comp-neuro] Open Position: PhD Position - Bernstein Center for Computation Neuroscience Heidelberg/Mannheim

The Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Heidelberg/Mannheim (Research Group Prof. Dr. Christian Fiebach; Goethe-University Frankfurt) offers a

 

PhD Position (TV-E 13 50%)

in Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience, to be filled as early as possible.

                                                     

The Bernstein Center Heidelberg/Mannheim investigates the influence of genetic variatons on cognitive processing in healthy persons and psychiatric patients. One main focus is the computational modeling of genetic influences on network dynamics in prefrontal cortex.

 

The PhD position is part of the project “Cognitive Flexibility vs. Stability” and will primarily be involved in the neurocomputational modeling of cognitive processes and in model-based analysis of fMRI data from genotyped samples (Imaging Genetics).

 

We expect an excellent degree (Master or Diploma) in Computational Neuroscience, Psychology, Biology, Physics or related disciplines. Further information can be obtained directly from Christian Fiebach (fiebach@psych.uni-frankfurt.de).
