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. You 
can find out more about our work at:

We are seeking two ambitious PhD students who will work on the exciting field 
of ultrahigh resolution fMRI that allows to investigate the human cortex at the 
scale of layers and columns. 

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).
