A significant part of the research project (obligatory: 6 to 12 months) will be performed at the partner sites in Canada. Doctoral candidates of the IRTG attend a structured doctoral program including seminar and lecture series and practical courses and are jointly supervised by German and Canadian researchers. The key goal of the IRTG is to deepen the understanding of the neural systems and processes that underlie perception and action in everyday living. Research of this position will focus on sensorimotor processing in humans and non-human primates (NHPs). We apply a variety of research methods, such as tracking of eye- and head-movements, neurophysiology, EEG or computational approaches.
