PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience at Karolinska Institute

PhD position in Cognitive Neuroscience

Ehrsson's group at the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden, has funding available for
a 4 year PhD position in cognitive neuroscience. Our work focuses on how we come to
experience that we own our body, and why we experience that we are located inside our
physical bodies. To address these issues we use a combination of behavioral and
functional imaging methods. For more information about our research visit

Our lab is based at the Department of Neuroscience and Stockholm Brain Institute, a
centre of excellence for cognitive and computational neuroscience
(www.stockholmbrain .se). This offers an outstanding scientific environment with access to
a number of methodological platforms. The Karolinska, which is one of Europe's top
medical universities, has many foreign students and professors, and English is spoken at
all lectures and seminars.
Qualifications: The candidate must have a master degree in psychology, neuroscience,
medicine or engineering, with a strong and documented interest in cognitive
neuroscience. We are looking for a highly motivated and talented individual that can
actively contribute with own ideas and proposals. Proficiency in oral and written English is
necessary, as are good social skills.

We have funding for 4 years including salary, all costs for running experiments, and travel
costs for conferences.
Starting salary is 20500 SEK/month.
