Tom Verguts


Three four-year positions are available for students who want to pursue a PhD degree in the Department of Experimental Psychology at Ghent University (see expsy.ugent.be). The Department consists of a young and multidisciplinary research group.
The broad topic is cognitive control; we are particularly interested in how cognitive control can be flexibly recruited to current task demands, and the relation between emotion and cognitive control.
The research will be supervised by Wim Notebaert or Tom Verguts. The methodology that will be focused is dependent on the student's interests; possibilities include computational modeling, neuroimaging (fMRI), EEG (ERP),  and behavioral (e.g., clinical-neuropsychological) measures. Salary is according to standard Belgian regulations. The starting date is flexible, ranging from January to December 2009. For more information, please contact Wim Notebaert (Wim.Notebaert at ugent.be) or Tom Verguts (Tom.Verguts at ugent.be).
