Applications are invited for the role of Research Assistant at the Institute of Neuroscience in Trinity College (TCIN) to work in the Multisensory Cognition Lab headed by Prof. Fiona Newell. The Multisensory Cognition lab is generally interested in all aspects of human perception based on vision, hearing and touch. The main project associated to this role is a collaboration with the TILDA project in Trinity College Dublin. For more information about TILDA please see here (https://tilda.tcd.ie/). The candidate will participate in regular lab and collaborator meetings, learn about diverse methodologies in the investigation of perception in older adults. The Research Assistant will join an existing team of PhD students, postdoctoral researchers and will have the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues within the Institute ofNeuroscience, University College Cork and the TILDA project. Standard Duties and Responsibilities of the Post The Research Assistant will be expected to support the administration and management of the project (e.g. Ethical approval, recruitment of participants, booking lab usage). They will also be required to help with the research, including data processing. The Research Assistant will also be involved in dissemination and outreach work, including maintaining the lab website, social media, and the organisation of a public event during the year.

The Multisensory Cognition lab is generally interested in all aspects of human perception based on vision, hearing and touch. The Research Assistant will join a project aimed at investigating object recognition in children and in adults. The research adopts a multidisciplinary approach involving cognitive neuroscience, statistical modelling, psychophysics and computer science, particularly Virtual Reality. The candidate will participate in regular lab and collaborator meetings, learn about diverse methodologies in perceptual science. The position is funded for 1 year with a possibility for continuation for another year. Successful candidates are expected to take up the position immediately, but ideally no later than March 2022. The Research Assistant will join a research team of PhD students, postdoctoral researchers and will have the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues within the Institute of Neuroscience and industrial partners. The group has dedicated laboratory facility equipped with state-of art facilities for behavioural testing, including eye tracking and VR technology (HTC Vive and Oculus). TCIN also houses a research-dedicated MRI scanner, accessible to all principal investigators and their groups. The Research Assistant will be expected to support the administration and management of the project (e.g. Ethical approval, project website, social media, recruitment of participants, setting up data storage protocols etc.). The will also be required to help with the research, including stimulus creation (i.e. collating and building a database of visual, haptic and auditory stimuli for experiments on multisensory perception), participant testing and data collection. The Research Assistant will also be involved in the initial stages of setting up and testing using an eye tracker (Tobii or Eyelink) and VR/AR apparatus (Oculus or HTC Vive) with other team members and collaborators.

Two two-years Research Assistant positions are available at the Institute of Cognitive Sciences and Technologies, Italian National Research Council, starting as early as February 2023. The selected candidates will have the opportunity to work on the research track of HACID (http://hacid-project.eu/), which is an is an HORIZON Innovation Action, a collaborative project funded under the Horizon Europe Programme, within the topic 'AI, Data and Robotics at work'. HACID develops a novel hybrid collective intelligence for decision support to professionals facing complex open-ended problems, promoting engagement, fairness and trust. The focus of these fellowships is design and development of knowledge graphs and collective intelligence methods in the context of two application domains: medical diagnostics and decision support for climate change adaptation policies.

We are currently recruiting both a research technician and a fully funded PhD student to work on a Wellcome funded project 'How does the brain map sounds into the world?'. This Wellcome funded project uses a range of systems neuroscience and computational approaches to understand how auditory space is constructed in freely moving animals that are pursuing audio and audiovisual targets. The PhD student will be paid as a research assistant for four years, and have their fees funded at the UK rate.

We are looking for a motivated research assistant / engineer (“ingénieur d’étude” – IE) with expertise in neuromorphic engineering to join the team of Drs. Timothée Levi, Fabien Wagner, and Amélie Aussel at the University of Bordeaux (Institut du Matériau au Système – IMS – and Institut des Maladies Neurodégénératives – IMN). The goal of the project is to expand our current efforts towards performing large-scale simulations of conductance-based neuronal models on FPGAs, with an application to neurostimulation of the hippocampal formation. The initial contract would be for a period of 1 year with an expected starting date on Oct 1st, 2024.
