Job vacancies

The institute offers an excellent multidisciplinary environment with its own physics, psychology and clinical neuroscience research group, as well as a 3T MR tomograph and a whole head MEG system. Interdisciplinary work in a lively and creative environment is natural for us.

We are looking for highly-motivated employees with interest and preliminary work in the neurosciences, preferably with experience in imaging processes (e.g. SPM). Program knowledge (e.g., Matlab) is welcome.

This results in ongoing employment opportunities for phd students and post-docs.
A speculative application with letter of motivation and CV to sysneuro@uke.de we look forward.
