<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">A
Postdoctoral position is available in the project "Perceptual Awareness in
the reorganizing Brain" (headed by Prof. Carlo Alberto Marzi). The project
is part of a recently funded project by ERC AdG Grant program at the Department
of Neurological and Movement Sciences, Physiology and Psychology Section, University of Verona, Italy, whose scientific aim is to
investigate the neural mechanisms of the shift from unconscious (blindsight) to
conscious vision in patients with hemianopia as well as in healthy
participants. <br>
This ambitious aim will be pursued by means of behavioural paradigms associated
to fMRI scanning and ERP and possibly MEG recording. The preferred starting
date is May 1, 2014 or soon thereafter. <br>
<br>
We seek a highly motivated candidate with a strong background in neuroimaging
techniques (fMRI and/or EEG) as documented by relevant publications. He/she
should hold a PhD in a relevant discipline (neuropsychology, cognitive
neuroscience, neurophysiology). Additional experience in programming (Matlab,
C/C++ , e-prime, or other programming languages) and data analysis skills is
preferable. <br>
The successful applicant will join a stimulating, enthusiastic team providing an
excellent environment for cutting edge research on the neural mechanisms of
perceptual awareness and their implications for recovery of conscious vision
following brain damage. Besides state-of-the-art neuroimaging equipment (ERP, 3T
fMRI, compatible eye tracker), our team offers expertise in a vast range of experimental
psychology and neuropsychology paradigms.</span></p>
