A postdoctoral position ("Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter") is available at the
Berlin NeuroImaging Center, Berlin, Germany.
Focus of research is in language acquisition. More specifically, we are
interested in functional and structural brain changes due to learning a new
language in adulthood. The position is integrated in a young,
interdisciplinary team in the field of cognitive neuroscience. We employ a
combination of psychophysical methods, functional, and structural
neuroimaging (EEG, fMRI, MRI, NIRS). The successful applicant will need
to have a PhD in a field related to cognitive neuroscience (e.g.
neuroscience, psychology, medicine, linguistics, engineering, physics, or
informatics).
Applicants should have a background in cognitive neuroscience and/or
neuroimaging (MEG, EEG, fMRI, MRI, or other brain imaging techniques),
experience in language research, and experience in experimental design,
computer programming and statistical methods (software packages
FreeSurfer, FSL, AFNI, or SPM; and/or manual tracing methods of brain
structures). The position is for two years, available immediately and has
the option of extension. Salary will be according to BAT IIa.
