PostDoc (m/f/d) - Department of Decision Neuroscience and Nutrition
German Institute of Human Nutrition (DIfE), Potsdam-Rehbrücke
a PostDoc (m/f/d)
The general aim of the department is to understand the complex mechanisms of human decision making (consume, social or economic). We investigate different strategies that modulate diverse decisions. These strategies and underlying mechanisms will be investigated in healthy and clinical populations (i. e. psychiatric or endocrine) both in experimental and cohort data. This highly interdisciplinary research requires a systematic combination of neural, (fMRI, EEG, NIRS), physiological (SCR, HR, Eye movements) and metabolic data (i. e. hormones and neurotransmitter precursors).
Tasks
- Conducting research projects focusing on the emergence of choices and factors influencing those choices (psychological and neurobiological)
- Planning and implementation of research projects and analysis of multimodal data (neuronal, physiological, metabolic and behavioral data) using current and innovative methods
- Presentation of research results (in scientific journals, colloquia and conferences, manuscript publication)
Requirements and Skills
- Excellent master and doctoral degree in psychology, cognitive science, biology, computer science, medicine or an equivalent discipline
- Relevant research experience or interest in the field of “Decision Neuroscience” or Neuroeconomics is highly welcome, but not mandatory
- Knowledge of neuroscientific methods (fMRI, EEG, MEG or NIRS) and/or in psychophysics would be of great advantage
- Programming skills in Matlab, R or python and experience in advanced statistical analyses
- Knowledge of behavioral modeling would be of great advantage
- High motivation and interest in interdisciplinary collaboration in a versatile international research environment
We offer:
- A dynamic and interactive scientific environment within a highly interdisciplinary international team as well as excellent technical possibilities
- Salary will be paid in accordance with TV-L, level 13
- Supporting of mobility with a jobticket for using the public transport
The advertised position is subject to the project approval and is available for 3 years**.**
We look forward to welcoming a team player with high problem-solving skills, excellent achievements and a high level of commitment.
