As a translational group, we develop novel neuromodulation tools and work closely together with biomedical companies to gain access to innovative neurotechnology. We combine basic studies on healthy subjects with clinical studies on patient populations, and apply the knowledge gained from these studies to refine our treatment protocols.

Qualifications:

• Master’s degree or PhD in the field of Neuroscience, Cognitive Science, Biology, Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science or related fields.
• Solid understanding of statistical data analysis, digital signal processing and/or programming principles.
• Programming skills in Python or MATLAB and/or experience in applying statistical tools, e.g., machine learning for data analysis.
• Experience with relevant neuromodulation and/or electrophysiological techniques, e.g., BCI/BMI, tDCS/tACS, TMS, VNS, NMES, DBS, M/EEG, LFP, MER and/or EMG.

We offer:

• Access to novel brain stimulation paradigms to expand the understanding of the human brain and develop new therapies.
• Opportunity to work with in vivo electrophysiological data from patients and healthy controls.
• Support of your work with a broad range of pre-built analysis tools and assistance in designing your own approaches.
• Access to state-of-the-art technologies to generate reliable results.
• A team that is united by one vision: to enhance the understanding of the human brain in order to invent and implement new and more effective therapies.

We offer remuneration in accordance with TV-L (collective wage agreement for the Public Service of the German Federal States) in addition to all the customary benefits granted to employees working in public services.
The jobs are initially limited.

University of Tübingen

Innovative, interdisciplinary, international: These three words summarize what makes the University of Tübingen special. Excellent research and teaching are Tübingen’s answer to the challenges of the future in a globalized world. We maintain exchanges with partners around the globe - both at institutions of higher education and at non-university research institutions. Networks and cooperation across faculty and subject boundaries are the pillars of our successful strategy. This is reflected in our good position in international rankings. In addition, we are one of the eleven German universities distinguished with the title of “excellent.”

Institute for Neuromodulation and Neurotechnology

The Institute for Neuromodulation and Neurotechnology at the University of Tuebingen, Germany, unites neuroscientists, engineers, computer scientists and physicians following a common goal: To improve the lives of patients with brain disorders using state-dependent stimulation and adaptive neurotechnology for neuromodulation of the nervous system.
