Postdoctoral Research Fellow – Auditory Cognitive Neuroscience I am recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join my group at the UCL Ear Institute as part of a new UKRI-funded project investigating the human
"auditory buffer". The project aims to understand how the brain retains and uses recent auditory information to support perception, detect regularities and predict incoming sounds. We will investigate the capacity and limitations of this auditory memory system,
the neural and computational mechanisms that underpin it, and how its function varies across individuals and age groups. The research combines large-scale behavioural experiments, EEG and MEG recordings, pupillometry and computational modelling, offering an exciting opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research at the intersection of auditory
neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience and computational approaches to perception. The successful candidate will join a vibrant community of systems and cognitive neuroscientists at UCL, benefiting from a stimulating, interdisciplinary and collaborative research
environment. We are seeking a motivated researcher with a PhD in neuroscience or a related discipline (e.g. biology, biomedicine or experimental psychology), a strong academic background and a proven track record of research. Essential expertise includes experience in cognitive neuroscience research, strong programming and signal-processing skills, and experience in analysing and/or computationally modelling neuroimaging data (EEG, MEG and/or fMRI). The position offers substantial opportunities for intellectual contribution, methodological innovation and professional development. Vacancy details and application link:
