Fwd:: Post Doc and PhD positions, Helsinki, Finland
by Gary Green 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

2 Post Doc, 2 PhD, Helsinki, Finland We are looking to recruit 2 post-doctoral researchers with an established track record either in cognitive neuroscience utilizing human electrophysiological recordings (MEG, EEG, SEEG, ECoG) or in technical/mathematical sciences such as signal processing, neuroinformatics, information theory, and complex systems, or in both. A successful applicant will have a high level of innovativity, commitment, courage, and inspiration to carry out top-level systems-neuroscience research. Strong writing skills are essential and a background in mathematics and programming useful. We are, in particular, looking for researchers experienced in the field of neuronal oscillations, dynamics, and connectomics. The post-doctoral positions are for 2 year contracts with a possibility for an extension, but also shorter visits may be considered. Multi-disciplinary systems neuroscience research is thriving in the Helsinki region with available experimental approaches ranging from genetics to MEG/EEG/fMRI and TMS. It is also worth noting that through effective child- and healthcare, high-quality public school system, and safe environment, Finland offers excellent possibilities for moving in with a family. We are also looking for 2 enthusiastic, talented, and highly motivated graduate students with a strong background in systems neuroscience and/or in relevant mathematical/technical sciences. Work experience in relevant research groups will be valuable. The post-doctoral researchers and graduate students will work in the research groups of Satu and J. Matias Palva (www.helsinki.fi/neurosci/groups/palva_satu.html , www.helsinki.fi/neurosci/groups/palva.html). The overarching aim of the present research projects is to understand the mechanisms coordinating collective neuronal activity into cognitive operations such as attention, conscious perception, and working memory. The work involves psychophysics, electrophysiological recordings (MEG, EEG, and SEEG), neuroimaging (MRI, fMRI, DTI), interventional approaches (e.g., TMS, BCI), and high-level data analyses and computational neuroscience approaches. The projects involve also several international collaborators and belong, in part, to the Human Brain Project. Applicants are invited to send satu.palva(a)helsinki.fi and matias.palva(a)helsinki.fi their CV, list of publications, motivation letter, and contact info for persons who can give recommendations. Potential candidates are also encouraged to send an inquiry email if they wish to find out more about the position before applying. The application deadline is 31.5.2014, but recruitment is effective immediately and positions may be filled already before the deadline. -- Haiteng Jiang PhD candidate Neuronal Oscillations Group Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging Radboud University Nijmegen Visiting address Room 2.32 Kapittelweg 29 6525 EN Nijmegen Tel: +31 (0)243668291 Web: https://sites.google.com/site/haitengjiang/
