Two postdoctoral positions in Cognitive Neuroscience in the "Laboratoire
de Neurosciences Cognitives", Marseille, FR
The "Laboratoire de Neuroscience Cognitives" (Aix-Marseille Université,
CNRS) is opening two post-doctoral positions (EEG/MEG and TMS) to work
on an ERC project aiming at deciphering pro-active and reactive
cognitive control, within the team "Attention, Chronometry and Cortical
Dynamics". Each position is offered for 12 months (first instance,
potentially renewable).
Applicants for the EEG/MEG position must have a PhD on Cognitive
Neuroscience/Experimental Psychology (or related disciplines) and have a
good knoedge on EEG and/or MEG processing. Knowledge on spatial analysis
(Current Source Density for EEG, inverse solution for EEG and MEG) is
certainly a plus. Although not required, programming skills in high
level scientific languages (Python, Matlab etc...) will be (highly)
appreciated. The hosting group is equipped with several EEG systems (64
and 128 electrodes) and has access to a 248 magnetometers MEG system (4D
Neuroimaging magnes 3600), coupled with an EEG system. When applying
please indicate [post-doc EEG/MEG] in the subject of your mail.
Applicants for the TMS position must have a PhD on Cognitive
Neuroscience/Experimental Psychology (or related disciplines) and have
experience with single pulse (and potentially paired-pulse) TMS.
Knowledge of a neuronavigation system is a plus. Although not required,
programming skills in high level scientific languages (Python, Matlab
etc...) will be (highly) appreciated. The hosting group is equipped
with several TMS apparatus, and with a robotized device allowing to
precisely track the participants head movements to ensure optimal
positioning of the coil. When applying please indicate [post-doc TMS] in
the subject of your mail.
Salary will be adjusted based on experience, and will follow CNRS
regulation (between 2000 and 2900€ net).
The "Laboratoire de Neurosciences Cognitives" is embedded in a very
active and large Brain Research community (the second largest in
France), ranging from cellular physiology to social neurosciences. The
hosting group has strong connections with the local Brain research
community, and numerous international collaborations, that will benefit
to the retained candidates.
French speaking is not a requirement.
Position starts as soon as possible, and will be opened until it is filled.
Besides, Marseille is a very nice city in south of France, on the
Mediterranean Sea, with a warm climate. It is also at about 1h30 from
the Alps mountains, allowing easy access to hiking and winter sports.
CV and motivation letters, along with informal enquiries, are to be sent
to Boris BURLE (email: boris.burle(a)univ-amu.fr), with the appropriate
subject heading (see above).
