The Cognitive Psychology lab at the University of Hamburg (Germany) directed by Dr. Lars Schwabe is seeking a post-doctoral fellow interested in Cognitive and/or Affective Neuroscience. Our lab focusses on the impact of emotion and stress on learning, memory and decision-making. We use a broad range of methods, ranging from fMRI, EEG, fNIRS, TMS to psychopharmacology or cognitive modelling, to elucidate the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying the influence of stress and emotion on cognitive functions.
