Cognitive Neuroscience Research positions in Coimbra Portugal – open call for 2021

The Proaction Laboratory (Jorge Almeida's lab; proactionlab.fpce.uc.pt) at the University Coimbra Portugal is looking for Researchers at different levels of their career from newly phd graduates, to assistant, associate or full level researchers to be part of the lab in a joint competitive application to a Portuguese Science Foundation (FCT) independent researcher call. We particularly encourage applications from women, and from underrepresented groups in academia.

 

The applicants should have an interest on cognitive neuroscience, vision science and preferably (but not limited to) object recognition, conceptual processing, and action and perception. We are particularly interested in motivated and independent Researchers addressing these topics with strong expertise in behavioral, motion tracking, neuromodulation, fMRI and/or EEG approaches (in particular Multivariate EEG decoding, and EEG/fMRI multimodal approaches). Good programming skills, great communication and mentoring skills, and a great command of English are a plus.

 

The applicant and the lab will work on a competitive project to be submitted. Results from the application are expected to be out in October/November 2020. The application deadline is around February 29.

 

The positions are as independent researchers in the Proaction Lab, are for 6 years, and the salary is the same as the Portuguese payroll for University Professors (net values for junior, assistant, associate positions, for instance are approximately 1500, 1900 and 2100 euros per month in a 14 month salary per year; these are competitive salaries for the cost of living in Portugal and especially in Coimbra).  

 

The Proaction Lab is currently very well funded as we have a set of on-going funded projects including a Starting Grant ERC to Jorge Almeida and several FCT projects. We have access to a 3T MRI scanner with a 64-channel coil (with EEG inside the scanner), to tDCS, and to a fully set psychophysics lab. We have a 256 ch EEG, motion tracking and eyetracking on site. We also have a science communication office dedicated to the lab.

 

Finally, the University of Coimbra is a 700 year old University and has been selected as a UNESCO world Heritage site. Coimbra is one of the most lively university cities in the world, and it is a beautiful city with easy access to the beach and mountain.

The deadline for this pre-application is January 30, but you should apply as soon as you can – the sooner the better so that we can prepare the application. If interested send an email to jorgecbalmeida@gmail.com, with a CV, and motivation/scientific proposal letter. If there is a fit, we will jointly apply to these positions.
