Dear EEGLab users,

A PhD position will be available shortly in my lab. If you are
interested in this position, or know someone who might be, please get in
touch. Details copied in below.

Jacob

The division of Experimental Psychology of the University of Groningen
is looking for a PhD Student in Cognitive Neuroscience (f/m)

On short term, a PhD position will be available in the division of
Experimental Psychology, under supervision of Dr Jacob Jolij. In this
project, you will study the interaction between conscious and
unconscious visual processing, and how conscious and unconscious visual
information influence higher mental processes, such as decision making
and social cognition. Research methods include (but are not limited to)
TMS, fMRI, EEG, and eye-tracking.

The University of Groningen is a research-intensive university in the
north of the Netherlands, with over 20,000 students, ranked in the top
25 of European research universities. The department of Psychology is
one of the largest in the Netherlands and offers both Dutch and English
language programmes. The division of Experimental Psychology consists of
approx. 15 members of staff with research interests such as visual
perception, consciousness, cognitive control, memory, attention, traffic
psychology, and neurofeedback. Research facilities are excellent, and
have recently seen large investments in cognitive neuroscience
facilities, such as new EEG labs and a new TMS lab. The department
participates in the Neuroimaging Centre of the University Medical Centre.

Groningen is a medium sized city with a historic city centre, and a
vibrant atmosphere, generally recognized as one of the most enjoyable
cities in the Netherlands. Groningen is well connected to the west of
the Netherlands (Amsterdam) and the north of Germany (Bremen).

[The offer]
A PhD bursary for four years, approx. EUR 1550 per month net. During the
project you will conduct research and receive training in the Graduate
School for Behavioural and Cognitive Neurosciences.

[Requirements]
An MSc or equivalent degree in Cognitive Neuroscience, Psychology or
related area. Programming skills (Matlab, Delphi) are highly welcome, as
is experience with neuroimaging methods. Having spent a period abroad
during your studies is an important bonus, too.
