Doctoral Position (m,f,x) in Computational Neuroscience (Project A07)

Are you curious about how the human brain stores and retrieves memories? Do you want to know how this ability develops in children? The Collaborative Research Center “Episodic Memory” (CRC 1844) is an interdisciplinary consortium consisting of researchers from psychology, computational neuroscience, philosophy and neuroscience. The basis for our research is the Scenario Construction Framework which conceptualizes scenarios as mental simulations of past episodes, constructed from episodic memory traces and semantic information.

We are actively seeking a talented PhD student who will work on computational models of the development of episodic memory, in an interdisciplinary setting in close collaboration with experimental groups in psychology and neuroscience. The modeling project will use techniques from modern artificial neural networks and deep reinforcement learning.

Scope: part-time

Duration: fixed-term, until 31.12.2030 (end of project)

Start: from , pending funding approvel
