<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">We have a fully-funded PhD studentship at the Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging (CCNi) at the University of Glasgow starting in the Fall of 2019. The PhD work will focus on comparing social and non-social decisions and the extent to which they share common computational principles and neural implementation, using simultaneous EEG-fMRI measurements and computational modelling.<div><br></div><div>We are looking for a highly motivated individual with a background in Cognitive Sciences, Neuroscience, Behavioural Economics or a related discipline. Strong interest in and familiarity with decision neuroscience, reinforcement learning and behavioural economics is an essential requirement along with excellent statistical and programming skills (preferably in Matlab and/or R). A good grounding in experimental research methods with experience in brain imaging (e.g. EEG, fMRI) would be considered a plus.</div><div><br></div><div>The PhD will be based at the CCNi, which brings together researchers with interests in cognitive neuroscience, functional neuroimaging, neuropsychology, computational modelling and advanced analysis methods development. The CCNi provides an exceptional environment for brain imaging research with dedicated support from world-leading radio physicists and frequency engineers. The centre houses state-of-the-art 3T and 7T Siemens MR scanners, a magneto-encephalography (MEG) system, several EEG and TMS systems (including MR-compatible devices), eye-movement recorders and 4D model capture, all designed for non-invasive multi-modal brain imaging.</div><div><br></div><div>Applications will be accepted until April 5th here: <a href="https://tinyurl.com/y6mmbv7u">https://tinyurl.com/y6mmbv7u</a></div><div><br></div><div>Shortlisting will begin shortly thereafter and interviews will be held towards the end of April.
