Applications are invited for a postgraduate Research Associate position available immediately for 36 months to work in the field of human sensorimotor neuroscience. This Early Stage Research Training position is funded by the European Union as part of the “C7” Marie Curie Initial Training Network in “Cerebellar-Cortical Control: Cells, Circuits, Computation and Clinic”. The aim of the Training Network is to provide a multi-disciplinary research training in systems and cellular neuroscience of the cerebellum. The network involves researchers from across Europe working in motor behaviour, sensorimotor systems,
electrophysiology, biophysical and computational modelling and clinical research.
The trainee will undertake a research project focused on the parietal and cerebellar contribution to state estimation processes, using fMRI and MR-compatible robotics. Trainees have the possibility to register for a PhD at the University of Birmingham. This appointment will be through the University of Birmingham; however trainees will have the opportunity to undertake some studies and experiments at other sites within the EU Training Network.
