The Cognitive Psychology lab at the University of Hamburg (Germany)

interested in Cognitive and/or Affective Neuroscience. Our lab focusses 
on the impact of emotion and stress on learning, memory and 
decision-making. We use a broad range of methods, ranging from fMRI, 
EEG, fNIRS, TMS to psychopharmacology or cognitive modelling, to 
elucidate the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying the influence 
of stress and emotion on cognitive functions. For further information on 
our lab, please visit:

The successful candidate will join an open and dynamic research 
environment that provides excellent access to all state-of-the-art 
methods in human cognitive neuroscience. There are great opportunities 
to initiate individual research projects based on the person's interests 
(sufficient project funds will be provided). The position will include 3 
hours of teaching per week (during the summer and winter terms). The 
successful candidate is further expected to supervise BSc/MSc students 
and to acquire further funding for own research projects

This is a full-time employment for 3 years, with the possibility of a 
3-year extension after positive evaluation.

Starting date: negotiable, preferred October 1^st , 2021

The successful applicant will have excellent knowledge in the fields of 
Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience, excellent statistical knowledge, 
excellent programming skills (preferentially in MATLAB or Phython), and 
expertise in EEG and/or fMRI analysis. Experience in additional research 
techniques and/or cognitive modelling are a plus. The successful 
applicant should have strong scientific credentials that confirm the 
ability to conduct high‑quality peer-reviewed research. Good command of 
English, both spoken and written, is a requirement. Knowledge of German 
is a plus but not required.

seek applications from all qualified individuals from all demographics 
and backgrounds. Please send your application – including your CV, all 
relevant academic certificates, and two letters of reference – directly
