Distinguished PhD Researcher Position – Groundbreaking Neuroscience Project
hace 4 semanas
At BCBL, we are seeking a highly skilled and motivated PhD researcher to join our team for a groundbreaking neuroscience project. This exciting opportunity is part of the ERC Advanced Grant project "CORTICAL RHYTHMS: Aligning Brain Rhythms" which aims to improve language functions with real-time closed-loop neurofeedback.
Project Overview
The project focuses on exploring whether cortical tracking of speech can predict later reading deficits in Developmental Dyslexia (DD). Using cutting-edge neuroimaging tools and longitudinal designs, the successful candidate will investigate the temporal alignment between fluctuations in the speech signal and electrical brain activity.
Job Responsibilities
- Designing and implementing longitudinal studies in young children with and without familiar risk of DD
- Analysing electrophysiological recordings and EEG data during speech processing
- Writing research papers under the supervision of the PI, aiming to publish at top-tier journals
- Dissemination of results at international scientific conferences
Requirements
- Good knowledge of cognitive neuroscience and/or linguistics
- Masters (or equivalent) degree in Psychology, Cognitive Neuroscience, Linguistics, and/or other relevant areas
- Experience with EEG signal analyses
- Strong background in experiment programming and statistical analyses
- Excellent written and oral communication skills in English
Benefits
- A competitive annual salary of €21,000 gross
- Training opportunities and Career development plan through access to a Personal Career Development Plan
- Ongoing professional development and employability support
