*Open Position: PhD in Neuroscience - 4 year stipend in the project*
“Neural population activity for spatial orientation – from stationary
setups to mobile brain imaging in actively navigating humans"

The PhD applicant will be co-supervised by Prof. Klaus Gramann
(Biopsychology und Neuroergonomics @Technische Universität Berlin, Berlin,
Germany) and Prof. Christian Doeller (Kavli Institute for Systems
Neuroscience, Trondheim, Norway). The applicant will principally be based
at the Gramman Lab in Berlin (http://bemobil.bpn.tu-berlin.de/
<https://www.researchgate.net/deref/http%3A%2F%2Fbemobil.bpn.tu-berlin.de%2F>),
which investigates the effects of embodied cognition on brain dynamics, the
impact of active movement in space on spatial representations and the
underlying neural dynamics, and how insights from mobile brain imaging
studies can be translated to designing human-centered technical systems.
Dr. Doeller’s lab at the Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience (
https://www.doellerlab.com
<https://www.researchgate.net/deref/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.doellerlab.com>) aims
at understanding how the brain and the mind work, seeking fundamental
answers in neuroscience, including human navigation, memory, and knowledge
acquisition.
The candidate will work in the field of Mobile Brain/Body Imaging (MoBI) of
population codes in actively navigating humans. He or she will be working
in an interdisciplinary team on EEG experiments investigating spatial
navigation in traditional desktop-based setups as well as in Mobile
Brain/Body Imaging experiments with actively navigating humans. Tasks
include planning, implementing, and conducting behavioral and EEG
experiments, including motion capture, eye tracking, and virtual reality;
programming of experimental protocols using different software packages
(MATLAB, Unity) and data collection in healthy participants; dissemination
of results in peer-reviewed journals and at international conferences.

We are looking for suitable candidates with interest and knowledge in human
electroencephalography (EEG), spatial cognition, as well as very good
programming and modeling skills (Matlab, Unity3D). Applicants for this
position should have a background in neuroscience, psychology, cognitive
sciences, computer science, or a related field. Ideally, the candidate has
experience in developing, running, and analyzing EEG experiments,
experience with motion capture and biomechanics, profound knowledge in
biosignal analyses, and profound knowledge of data driven analyses
approaches (ICA, machine learning etc.). We are looking for a team player
with proficiency in verbal and written English.

The position is immediately available and is funded for a period of 4
years. Payment is 1,700.00 Euro per month.

The TU Berlin is an equal opportunity employer: Handicapped individuals are
strongly encouraged to apply, and so are women in areas in which they are
underrepresented. Applications should include a letter of motivation, a
curriculum vitae, Master certificates (including a list of classes taken
during Bachelor and Master studies), letters of references and a short
summary of past research experience. Applications should be submitted in a
single PDF document to the email addresses below.
