[visionlist] postdoc position Leuven, Belgium

[Johan Wagemans]

Postdoctoral Position in Brain Imaging

at the Laboratory of Experimental Psychology University of Leuven, Belgium

 

At the Laboratory of Experimental Psychology (University of Leuven), a
postdoctoral research fellowship is available to investigate the neural
correlates of processes which are involved in visual perception (Johan
Wagemans, Karl Verfaillie, Hans Op de Beeck), reasoning (Walter Schaeken,
Wim Deneys), memory (Géry d’Ydewalle) and numerical cognition (Bert
Reynvoet). Currently, the Lab has access to one 1.5T and two 3T fMRI
scanners, in the context of a larger fMRI research consortium at the
university, involving radiology (Stefan Sunaert), neurology (Rik
Vandenberghe), neurophysiology (Guy Orban, Wim Vanduffel, Peter Janssen,
Rufin Vogels, Marc Vanhulle), and kinesiology (Stefan Swinnen, Nici
Wenderoth).

 

The candidate is expected to help in conducting high-level research using
fMRI, and to coach methodologically and statistically the ongoing projects
from the Lab. Ideally, the candidate has experience in one of the domains
(perception, reasoning, memory, and numerical cognition) currently under
investigation in the Lab.

 

The position is funded for 4 years, with a minimum commitment of 2 years.
Candidates who were employee or were appointed last two years in Belgium, or
who received a PhD at a Belgian university are not eligible.

 

The candidate should minimally 

$     Have a PhD in Experimental Psychology and/or Neurosciences (Biology,
Biotechnology, Biophysics, Medicine, Bioengineering) 

$     Have a publication record in the field of cognitive neuroscience in
one of the domains studied in the Lab 

$     Have experience with fMRI data-acquisition and analysis

$     Have a strong background in computer programming

$     Have knowledge of techniques to analyze MRI data
