The project will be funded by a Starters Grant from the research institute Radboud Social Cultural Research (RSCR) awarded to Dr Bas Hofstra and Dr Ashwin Rambaran. Social unsafety (encompassing a host of undesirable behaviours) in the workplace is a widespread phenomenon in many organisations, which comes at great costs for both employees (low well-being,...

The Centre for Language Studies (CLS) is looking for a PhD candidate for a project on the interplay of experience and concreteness in smell and flavour languages. We offer you the opportunity to develop and carry out your own PhD project within the areas of expertise of your supervisors (Prof. Margot van Mulken, Dr Ilja Croijmans and Dr Laura Speed). The...

We are looking for a full professor who can strengthen our profile in the multidisciplinary and shifting field of anthropology and development studies. You will push the intellectual boundaries in studying societal change as well as contribute to decolonising change by making our department a place to rethink and craft alternative, more inclusive futures in...

A PhD position is available in Dr Janneke Jehee's lab at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour. You will work on studies of visual decision-making, sensory uncertainty, and decision confidence.

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are driving new applications in AI, data science and intelligent systems. Yet, their training demands significant computational power, leading to a need for energy-efficient techniques that work well on lightweight devices. Random sparse ANNs have shown promise in addressing this challenge. However, the full understanding...

In this PhD position you will develop and analyse a new class of Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms (such as Gibbs Sampling and Metropolis-Hastings) that make use of a novel technology that is currently only available in specialist labs. Using dedicated photonic manipulation, researchers can build covarying bits out of magnetic fields at the nanoscale that...

We will support you throughout the PhD process to engage in research, participate in local, national and international meetings, and report on your results in scientific publications. You should ideally be available to start the PhD project between 1 September and 1 November 2024. Other starting dates are negotiable, but the earlier the better. This...

You will be working on the semantics and verification of systems software (libraries for concurrency, efficient data structures, compilers, and/or operating systems) using type systems, separation logic, and proof assistants. As part of this PhD project, you will contribute to one or more topics: - The type-theoretical foundations and implementation of the...

Employment 1.0 FTE Gross monthly salary € 2,770 - € 3,539 Required background Research University Degree Organizational unit Faculty of Arts Application deadline 14 June 2024 Humans are bombarded with perceptual information across sensory modalities. How do we communicate about these sensory experiences? For some sensory modalities, for example vision,...

Are you passionate about unraveling the mysteries of consciousness? And do you want to delve into fMRI, pupillometry, and information theory to understand how sensory predictions shape our perception of color? Then join Donders Centre for Cognition as a PhD candidate! This PhD project aims to address a primary challenge of consciousness research: to explain...

This project aims to understand the neurocognitive relation between the development of referential communication and emotional action control, testing the hypothesis that both rely on the capacity of generating different hypothetical scenarios with different action options, and that this capacity (’alternative thinking’) can be differentiated from other...
