Department of Psychiatry, Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics at the University of Zurich_

Postdoctoral Researcher

80-100 % :Our lab is interested in the variability in psychotic disorders as reflected in brain circuits and behavior. We design and implement multimodal paradigms (e.g. combined fMRI and speech production) and use methods such as machine learning, multilevel analyses and computational modeling. These paradigms can also be used to decompose performance into interpretable components of cognitive and perceptual processing of cognitive tests that are used routinely in clinical diagnosis. We are using a variety of psychological and neuroscientific methods, such as multimodal imaging (fMRI, structural MRI, DTI), natural language processing, and behavioral modeling.


Your profile:


  • PhD degree in a field related to cognitive neuroscience (cognitive neuroscience, neuroscience, psychology, medicine, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering or computer science)
  • Expertise in multimodal imaging analyses
  • Programming skills (Matlab, R, Python, Stan)
  • Advanced skills in statistics and data management
  • Research background in the design of neurophysiological experiments
  • Excellent verbal and written English skills
  • Previous experience in developing analysis methods for fMRI is desirable

What we offer:


  • To work in a diverse team of highly motivated young researchers who are passionate about psychiatry, neuroscience and computer science
  • A competitive salary and generous social benefits (salary 90' '000 USD/year)
  • Generous support for professional travel and research needs
  • An inspiring work environment within the Department of Psychiatry and the University of Zurich and part of the Neuroscience Center Zurich (ZNZ)
  • The opportunity to live in Zurich, one of the world's most attractive cities
