🚨 Postdoc Opportunity – Gut-Brain Electrophysiology & Sensory Perception

We’re hiring a 2-year postdoctoral researcher at the University of Copenhagen, funded by a Lundbeck Foundation Experiment Grant.

The project explores how slow gastric rhythms shape human perception and cognition, with a focus on time-locking sensory stimuli to internal visceral states. The postdoc will work with EEG, EGG, and behavioral paradigms, and apply advanced signal processing and machine learning techniques.

👤 Ideal candidates will bring expertise in human electrophysiology (EEG, EGG, or MEG), cognitive neuroscience or psychophysics, and programming (Python, MATLAB, etc.).
The position also offers opportunities for teaching and student co-supervision.
