Perception, Action & Cognition (PAC Brown University

Postdoc – Integrating Visually-guided Action and Higher-order Cognitive Processes

 

A postdoctoral position is open in the Perception, Action & Cognition (PAC) lab led by Dr. Joo-Hyun Song, Department of Cognitive, Linguistic & Psychological Sciences (CLPS) at Brown University (Providence, RI).

 

We investigate the underlying mechanisms involved in integrating visually-guided action and higher-order cognitive processes such as decision-making, visual memory, and attention as well as visuomotor learning, using techniques of psychophysics, behavioral measurements of eye and arm movement trajectories, functional neuroimaging (fMRI) and EEG. General information about the lab’s research interests can be found http://research.clps.brown.edu/songlab

 

  • We are seeking highly qualified individuals with a Ph.D. in a relevant field (e.g., Psychology, Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science) and shared interests in the core research area.
  • Experience with fMRI and/or EEG is highly desirable.
  • Experience with online reaching and eye movement tracking or other techniques such as TMS is also welcome.
  • Excellent programming skills are essential (e.g. Matlab, Unix).
  • Expertise in advanced statistics or computational methods is also desirable.

 

To apply, please send a CV, a brief statement of research interests, and the names of three references. Questions and/or application materials should be emailed to joo-hyun_song at brown.edu.
