Ehrsson's group at the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden, has funding available for a 4 year PhD position in cognitive neuroscience. Our work focuses on how we come to experience that we own our body, and why we experience that we are located inside our physical bodies. To address these issues we use a combination of behavioral and functional imaging methods. For more information about our research visit www.neuro.ki. se/ehrsson/
Our lab is based at the Department of Neuroscience and Stockholm Brain Institute, a
centre of excellence for cognitive and computational neuroscience
(www.stockholmbrain .se). This offers an outstanding scientific environment with access to a number of methodological platforms. The Karolinska, which is one of Europe's top medical universities, has many foreign students and professors, and English is spoken at all lectures and seminars.
Qualifications: The candidate must have a master degree in psychology, neuroscience,
medicine or engineering, with a strong and documented interest in cognitive
neuroscience. We are looking for a highly motivated and talented individual that can
actively contribute with own ideas and proposals. Proficiency in oral and written English is necessary, as are good social skills.
We have funding for 4 years including salary, all costs for running experiments, and travel costs for conferences. Starting salary is 20500 SEK/month.
Deadline for application: April 6 2009
