\"\"The Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory of Prof. Stefan Treue, the Sensorimotor Group (SMG) of Dr. Alexander Gail and the Decision and Awareness Group (DAG) of Igor Kagan at the German Primate Center (DPZ) in G\u00f6ttingen, Germany, invite applications for several open and fully funded PhD positions.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Research in our laboratories focuses on the neural basis of higher sensory and motor functions. We focus on extracellular recordings from primate cortex and human psychophysics, but also use functional imaging and computational neural modeling.
\nAs part of the Center for System Neuroscience (CSN) and the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience (BCCN) we offer a stimulating, multi-disciplinary research environment with a strong background in both, experimental and computational neuroscience. Students can choose among multiple PhD programs of the Goettingen Graduate School for Neurosciences and Molecular Biosciences (GGNB).
\nThe German Primate Center is an equal opportunity employer.<\/p>\n

Full Doctorate<\/strong>
\nThe program can start at anytime for a duration of 4 years. The working language is English.<\/p>\n

Requirements for Applicant<\/span><\/p>\n

Subject Requirements (Qualification)<\/strong>
\nWe are looking for highly motivated students with a strong interest in system neuroscience. A degree in neuroscience, physics, engineering, biology, psychology, or related fields is required. Experience in programming is of significant advantage.<\/p>\n
