Dear all,

Apologies for the cross-posting.

We are seeking a researcher interested in establishing themselves as an
independent PI under a 2–3 year contract in Portugal, to lead and further
develop our EEG laboratory (256 Ch EEG AntNeuro) and a newly purchased fMRI
compatible EEG to be used in our 3T MRI scanner.

The successful candidate will oversee the EEG facility and will have
substantial access to the equipment to pursue their own research program.
There will also be opportunities for collaboration with other PIs in the
department, including Jorge Almeida, Joana Carvalho, Jason Fischer, Pawel
Tacikowski, Robert Whitwell, Zohar Tal, Ceren Battal, and Alfonso
Caramazza, on joint EEG projects. Moreover, the PI will co-lead with Joana
Carvalho the use of the fMRI compatible EEG to be used in the 3T MRI
scanner.

We are particularly interested in researchers who aim to build an
independent research group (seed funding may be available) and who use EEG
to investigate major cognitive processes from a fundamental science
perspective and from a strong Cognitive Science perspective.

In addition to EEG, the department provides access to TMS (Magstim Super
Rapid² with Brainsight neuronavigation), tDCS systems, fMRI, eye tracking,
motion tracking, and virtual reality equipment.

This position is part of the major European-funded CogBooster initiative,
which aims to establish a permanent team of cognitive neuroscientists
within the Department of Psychology at the University of Coimbra. The
current group is highly international and conducts research spanning low-
and high-level vision, memory, attention, and action.

If you — or someone you know — might be interested in this opportunity,
please feel free to contact me.

Best regards,
Jorge
