Offer DescriptionPrincipal investigator: Julien Bastin, Inserm DR2
The candidate will contribute to a project on the mechanisms underlying the interferences between pathological and physiological brain activities in the context of epilepsy, funded by an ANR grant (EPICOG, AAPG2022).
By using a multidisciplinary approach that combines intracerebral electrophysiology and stimulation in awake epileptic patients and computational modeling, the candidate will investigate how interictal epileptic activities interfere with value-based decision/learning processes.
The main hypothesis of the project is that pathological epileptic brain activities interfere with cognitive neural activities such that decision making processes are altered when a transient interictal brain activity occurs prior a choice stimulus.
At the clinical level, the objective is to provide physiological and computational explanations of decision-making impairments related to epilepsy.
We are seeking candidatures of highly motivated, independent and enthusiastic individuals, with background in neuroscience and/or neuro-engineering. PhD in neuroscience, biology or related fields and experience in programming languages for data analysis is required. Expertise in behavioral testing, electrophysiology (scalp EEG, intracranial EEG or MEG) or other neuroimaging techniques and/or computational modeling would be appreciated
The position must be started between October 2023 and February 2024.
Candidates should send a CV to [email protected] , with brief narrative of previous achievements, research interests and career goals, plus 2-3 names for references (or recommendation letters).
Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled.
