The Wales Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience (WICN) is a collaborative 
project funded initially for three years by the Welsh Assembly 
Government, involving partnership between three of the UK’s most 
successful Psychology departments at Bangor University, Cardiff 
University and Swansea University.

WICN funding has created the opportunity to appoint a Research Fellow 
based in the 5* School of Psychology in Bangor. You will have the 
opportunity to pursue a research programme in Cognitive Neuroscience 
(broadly construed) alongside some of the leaders in the field. The 
post-holder is particularly encouraged to pursue collaborative work with 
other academics either within the WICN network or in outside institutions.

You will have a PhD in Psychology or a related discipline as well as a 
background and experience of research of international quality in one of 
the School’s specialist cognitive neuroscience areas, such as Perception 
and Action, Attention, Learning and Memory, Emotion, Cognitive 
Rehabilitation, Social Cognitive Neuroscience, or Language. You will 
also participate in WICN dissemination and outreach activity in line 
with your skills and experience. The successful applicant will be 
provided with a modest starting budget in order to initiate research 
projects.

The School of Psychology offers an outstanding research environment. 
Cognitive Neuroscience facilities include: an in-house, 
research-dedicated 3T MRI scanner; several EEG labs; fMRI-guided TMS; 
eye-tracking labs; haptic simulators; and robotic force-feedback 
devices. The School also supports a world-leading neurological patient 
panel. More details about the School can be found at:
