Who We Are

The Neurocomputation and Neuroimaging research group, headed by Prof. Dr. Felix Blankenburg at Freie Universität Berlin, is seeking to appoint a Predoctoral Research Associate (f/m/d)(50% part-time) at the earliest possible date.

Our research focuses on cognitive processes underlying perception and action using state-of-the-art methods in cognitive neuroscience. We are looking for a highly motivated candidate with an interest in experimental cognitive neuroscience and experience in programming and data analysis. The position offers an excellent opportunity to pursue a doctoral degree in a stimulating and collaborative research environment.

We offer an outstanding scientific environment with access to cutting-edge neuroimaging and neurocognitive research infrastructure, as well as the opportunity to work in an international and interdisciplinary team of researchers and students from diverse cultural backgrounds.
