Connectionists: 12 Postdoctoral positions - Ruhr University Bochum

[Vinita Samarasinghe]

*12 postdoctoral positions (min. 3 years) in Neuroscience, Psychology, 
and Philosophy of Mind***

The Ruhr University Bochum and the University of Duisburg-Essen are 
among Germany’s leading research universities. They draw their strength 
from both the diversity and the proximity of natural sciences, 
humanities, and engineering disciplines on coherent campuses. These 
highly dynamic settings enable researchers to work across traditional 
boundaries of academic subjects and faculties.

*We are searching for advanced postdocs who ideally already have ca. 2 
years of research experience*and want to continue their careers in an 
inspiring environment that fosters interdisciplinary approaches. We aim 
to install an outstanding group of postdocs, starting on 1^st of April 
2022 at the earliest, who are tightly integrated with the research focus 
“THINK at Ruhr”. Details of this research program as well as all further 
procedural details are outlined on the website: _*www.thinkatruhr.de* 
<http://www.ThinkAtRuhr.de/>_. Deadline of application is February 27, 2022.

*Applicants should have *an excellent PhD in a research topic related to 
neuroscience, psychology, or philosophy of mind and should already have 
published in high-ranking peer-reviewed journals. The postdoc positions 
offer a focus on research only (no teaching or administration). It is 
expected that the successful candidate will submit a grant proposal to 
establish her/his own research group (e.g. ERC Starting Grant, Emmy 
Noether Research Grant, Sofja Kovalevskaja Award, etc.) during the 
postdoctoral period. Candidate selection will be based on whether 
submission of such a proposal is a realistic goal in addition to usual 
measures of scientific excellence.

The candidates will be associated with faculty members who are named on 
the website thinkatruhr.de. THINK at Ruhr will foster and support any 
research activities of the postdocs. Our universities offer attractive 
academic career track options and family friendly conditions.
