PhD position ‘The neurophysiological mechanisms of sensory hypersensitivity’
4 maanden geleden
We are looking for a motivated PhD candidate for a four-year PhD position at the Department of Experimental Psychology at Utrecht University. Do you have a strong interest in the underlying mechanisms of sensory hypersensitivity? Maybe this is the perfect opportunity for you
Wat ga je doen?
In this project of PI’s and , we want to investigate the underlying mechanisms of sensory hypersensitivity, a condition that affects about 20% of neurotypical population and 60-80% of people with acquired brain damage. Because of the lack of knowledge about the underlying mechanisms, there are currently no diagnostic tools and evidence-based treatments available. In this project, we will use a variety of psychophysical and electrophysiological methods to test the hypothesis that hypersensitivity arises at early stages of sensory processing and is modulated by stress and (hyper-)arousal. Methods include psychophysics, EEG, lesion-overlap analysis, skin-conductance, and non-invasive fluid analysis (i.e. saliva). The project will run for four years (90% research, 10% teaching). You will participate in the PhD education programme of the .
Your work will include 10% teaching tasks, such as the supervision of Bachelor’s and Master’s theses and seminars for courses related to experimental psychology. Of course, you will be guided and supported in this by your supervisor and colleagues.
Wat breng je mee?
We are looking for an enthusiastic and collaborative team member, who meets the following requirements:
a (Research) Master’s degree in the field of experimental psychology, neuropsychology, cognitive neuroscience, artificial intelligence, or equivalent programme; a strong affinity with and experience in programming (i.e., Matlab, Python, or R); excellent knowledge of quantitative research and statistics and a high motivation to learn new methods; affinity with and good communication abilities for working in a multidisciplinary research team; high proficiency in written and spoken English (Dutch not required); interest and motivation to contribute to the teaching activities of the department.
Wat bieden wij?
a position for one year, with an extension to a total of four years upon a successful assessment in the first year, and with the specific intent that it results in a doctorate within this period; a working week of 38 hours and a gross monthly salary between €2,770 and €3,539 in the case of full-time employment (salary scale P under the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities (CAO NU); 8% holiday pay and 8.3% year-end bonus; a pension scheme, partially paid parental leave and flexible terms of employment based on the CAO NU.In addition to the laid down in the CAO NU, Utrecht University has a number of schemes and facilities of its own for employees.
