The Donders Institute, Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging, and the Faculty of Science seek to recruit a researcher for a Principal Investigator position. As a Principal Investigator, you will form a multidisciplinary team, focusing on research questions in cognitive neuroscience and using neuroimaging as the primary tool. You will have a limited teaching obligation at the Science faculty. You will be based at the Donders Institute, Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging and will have access to all its research facilities, including fMRI at 1.5 T, 3 T and 7 T, MEG, EEG, TMS and labs for primate research.
Requirements
You should be a highly talented and dedicated researcher in the fields
of cognitive neurosciences and neuroimaging, and you must be able to
establish your own line of research within the Centre’s overall
research profile and in collaboration with the Faculty of Science.
Organization
The Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour consists of
the Centre for Cognition, the Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging and the
Centre for Neuroscience.
The mission of the Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging is to conduct
cutting-edge fundamental research in cognitive neuroscience. Much of
the rapid progress in this field is driven by the development of
complex neuroimaging techniques for the in-vivo scanning of activity in
the human brain – an area in which the Centre plays a leading role. The
research themes cover central cognitive functions, such as perception,
action, attention, memory, language, learning and plasticity. The
Centre also aims to establish how the different brain areas coordinate
their activity with very high temporal precision to enable human and
animal cognition.
