External Email - Use Caution The newly established Cognitive Neuroscience & Neurotechnology group led by Dr. Romy Lorenz is looking for two enthusiastic PhD students (m/f/d) to join our growing team at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Tübingen, Germany.
Our lab focuses on advancing our understanding of the frontoparietal brain network mechanisms that underpin high-level cognition and adaptive behaviour. For this, we pursue an interdisciplinary research programme that allows studying this brain system at multiple levels of granularity. Our methodology involves subject-specific brain-computer interface technology, fMRI at 3T and ultrahigh (i.e., 7T and 9.4T) magnetic field strengths (for resolving cortical layers), EEG, non-invasive brain stimulation as well as machine learning.

The ideal candidates should have a master’s degree in cognitive (neuro)science, psychology, computer science, biomedical or electrical engineering, physics, or related disciplines. A strong background in fMRI data analysis (e.g., FSL, Freesurfer, ANTS) and very good programming skills in Bash on Linux, Matlab and/or Python are required. Prior experience in MRI data acquisition and experience with ultrahigh resolution fMRI (e.g., at 7T) is desirable but not necessary. Equally, experience with machine learning-methods, code sharing platforms (e.g. GitHub) and high-performance computing clusters are highly desirable. The Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics offers a world-leading research environment with access to the latest cutting-edge MRI hardware (including a Siemens 9.4T and Prisma 3T for humans as well as a 14.2T small animal system) and other excellent research facilities (EEG, eye-tracking, fMRI-TMS). The PhD student will receive generous support for professional travel and research needs (~2500€/year). Additionally, the student will have the opportunity to become part of the Graduate Training Centre of Neuroscience that provides training courses, summer schools and conferences to further educate doctoral students. Further, the Institute is part of the TübingenNeuroCampus (with more than 100 active groups), offering a vibrant community of international researchers and enriching environment of collaboration. The position is available from May 2024 on and remains open until filled. The salary is paid in accordance with the collective agreement for the public sector (65% TVL-E13, amounting to ~2000€ net per month).
