We are a junior research group located at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and supported by the Heisenberg Progam of the DFG. In our research we study vision and memory in action, and dive into questions related to how humans process causal interactions in their sensory environment. The lab’s core methods include psychophysics, eye tracking and applied statistics.
We were in Oxford for a few days after being invited by Dejan Draschkow and his lab for a workshop on combining eye tracking and EEG in virtual reality. Felix Klotzsche gave a wonderful introduction, motivating but also highlighting some important considerations when using VR as a tool for cognitive neuroscience. On the last day, we had the pleasure of presenting our memory studies using eye movements, EEG and VR at the BEACON seminar. Thanks to our host we had the best time in Oxford.
If you are currently enrolled as a student and would like to work in our laboratory in Berlin, then this job may be of interest to you. You will support us in collecting data for psychophysical experiments and gain insights into our day-to-day research work. If this sounds interesting, please apply by 14 February.
The call for our first Phd position in the lab is now online. If you would like to work on the perception of causality over the next few years, please apply by 14 FEB 2024.
