法国第戎大学认知和行为神经科学方向博士后职位
Job description:
The ambition of this fundamental research proposal is to investigate the underlying neural processes of mental practice, suggesting adaptive models of motor imagery, by means of complementary techniques. The findings from this project will open new perspectives in optimizing the benefits of mental practice during motor learning and motor recovery.
The CAPS laboratory offers a stimulating research environment and excellent opportunities for interactions and training in cognitive neuroscience and neurophysiology. Postdoctoral position to study neural plasticity and mental actions is available immediately.
The ambition of this fundamental research proposal is to investigate the underlying neural processes of mental practice, suggesting adaptive models of motor imagery, by means of complementary techniques. The findings from this project will open new perspectives in optimizing the benefits of mental practice during motor learning and motor recovery.
While previous researches only focused on brain plasticity following mental practice, the originality of this research is driven by a neural model of motor adaptation that integrates all stages of the central nervous system (cortical, corticospinal and spinal). The global view of the neural system by means of unique and complementary techniques will therefore highlight the benefits induced by mental practice.
Desired skills and experience:
Preference will be given to candidates with strong quantitative background with experience in the analysis of neurophysiological markers using techniques such as electromyography, transcranial magnetic stimulation and peripheral nerve stimulation.
Proficient knowledge of the English and/or French language is required and experience with matlab programming and kinematic analysis is favorable. Within the postdoc duration, the candidate will be demanded to apply for a permanent research position at INSERM.
