Research Positions in combined Monkey & Human MRI

A Postdoctoral fellow and a PhD student position are
available to work with Zoe Kourtzi at the Max Planck
Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Tuebingen. 

The research focuses on comparative human and monkey studies
of visual perception. The human studies will use
psychophysics and neuroimaging. The monkey studies will
employ combined electrophysiological and MRI techniques. The
research aims to investigate the neural basis and the
development of visual functions in the primate brain.

The research will be conducted in collaboration with
Prof.Nikos Logothetis and Prof. Heinrich Buelthoff.
Successful candidates will receive training in their
state-of-the-art laboratories. 

Applicants are expected to have a background in
Neuroscience, Cognitive Psychology, or a related field.
Programming skills and experience with neurophysiological or
imaging techniques are desirable but not necessary.
