<div dir="ltr"><p>The Brains, Minds & Bots Lab at Technische Universität Berlin invites applications for a three-year fixed-term research position within the DFG-funded project <em>“Neural correlates of trust in human–AI interaction.”</em> The position is expected to be filled in Spring 2026.</p><p>We seek a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher or doctoral candidate to investigate the neural dynamics of mental states during human–AI and human–robot interaction. The project examines how EEG can be used to derive implicit neural markers of trust and to quantify attentional allocation and working memory load in real time. By combining EEG/ERP methodology, cognitive modeling, and behavioral paradigms targeting visual attention and working memory, the project aims to establish objective measures of trust and cognitive workload that enable continuous tracking of user states during interaction with intelligent systems.</p><p>The position will be supervised by <b>Prof. Dr. Eva Wiese</b> and <b>Dr. Tobias Feldmann-Wüstefeld</b>. The role may be filled at the doctoral or postdoctoral level; candidates without a PhD will have the opportunity to pursue a doctorate within the project.</p><p>
</p><p>Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Dr. Tobias Feldmann-Wüstefeld (<a class="gmail-decorated-link gmail-cursor-pointer" rel="noopener">feldmann-wuestefeld@tu-berlin.de<span aria-hidden="true" class="gmail-ms-0.5 gmail-inline-block gmail-align-middle gmail-leading-none"></span></a>) for further information.
