The Comprehensive Hearing Center (CHC) at the University Hospital of Wuerzburg offers the position of a

Doctoral Student (f/m) (100%)

The company funded research project uses psychoacoustic and electrophysiological measures in cochlear implant subjects to develop optimized coding strategies for auditory neuroprotheses.

The CHC provides a rich interdisciplinary training environment within one of Germany's largest cochlear implant centers. Candidates can be integrated into the Ph.D. program of the Graduate School of Life Sciences. Applicants should have a Master's degree (M.Sc. or equivalent) in engineering, physics, neuroscience or related disciplines. Experience with Matlab, C/C++, and LabView are a plus.

The position is available for two years with the possibility of extension for another three years (contingent on satisfactory progress).

Applications from severely handicapped persons with basically similar qualification will be given priority. Women and minorities are encouraged to apply.

Applicants should submit a CV, one page statement of research interests, and the name of one referee electronically to:

Univ.-Prof. Dr. Andreas Bahmer, Head of the research unit at the CHC

PhD Position in the research project „Oscillatory mechanisms underlying memory retention and reactivation during sleep”

Project description:

Sleep benefits memory, and it is assumed that a fine-tuned interaction between hippocampal memory reactivations and several brain-oscillatory processes underlie the beneficial effect of sleep on memory (e.g. Rasch & Born, 2013). A causal role of memory reactivations is supported by studies showing that inducing reactivations during sleep by cueing improves memory formation (e.g. Rasch et al., 2007; Rudoy et al., 2009, Schreiner & Rasch, 2015; Schreiner, Lehmann & Rasch, 2015). However, the oscillatory mechanisms of “successful” memory reactivation during sleep still remain to be clarified. In this project we aim at identifying the oscillatory underpinnings of successful memory reactivations during sleep using targeted memory reactivation, electroencephalography (EEG) recordings and transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) during sleep in healthy adults.

Requirements:

The ideal candidate will hold a Masters degree in cognitive neuroscience, psychology or related fields. A strong background in experimental methods, statistics and data analysis is required, ideally including experience in EEG recordings and analysis. Applicants must be highly motivated and willing to pursue research and develop skills across disciplines. Applicants must be fluent in English and/or German.

We offer:

We offer the PhD candidate to conduct and contribute to exciting research projects in close collaboration with an excellent and highly motivated team. The research will be performed in the fully equipped sleep and memory laboratory of the Division of Cognitive Biopsychology and Methods at the University of Fribourg (Switzerland). Terms of employment conform to the regulations of the Canton of Fribourg, Switzerland.

Anticipated starting date: 1st of September 2016 Duration: 3-4 yearsApplication deadline: 15th of May 2016

Please send your application (cover letter detailing the motivation for the proposed project, CV, and the names/addresses of two referees) per email to: Esther Stauffacher, secretary (esther.stauffacher@unifr.ch).

Two Year Post-Doctoral Fellowship: Neuroimaging in Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

Our multidisciplinary team is seeking qualified candidates for a research-focused post-doctoral fellowship focused on the neuroimaging of traumatic brain injury (TBI). The preferred candidate will have demonstrated research productivity in the neuroimaging, have experience with network analysis, have a strong statistical background, and some facility with neuropsychological methods. Fluency in English and excellent writing ability are required. The PDF’s primary responsibility will be to take a lead role in the design and analysis of a funded study looking at the effect of intensive cognitive rehabilitation in a cohort of adults with mild to severe TBI. This study employs advanced cutting edge neuroimaging techniques including Myelin Water MRI, DTI, and EEG to index brain changes over time. 

The salary will be $43,000/ year plus benefits. The start date is anticipated to be May 2016.  Interested applicants should submit a cover letter and CV to Dr. Naznin Virji-Babul at  naznin.virji-babul@ubc.ca by March 31, 2016
