This PhD position, titled "The role of habitual inhibition in cognitive and emotional control (PID2022-136996NB-100)," is a unique opportunity to contribute to the Habit-nhibit project, funded by the Agencia Estatal de Investigacion, Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion.
Summary Table: Location: Alcala de Henares, Madrid, SpainTitle: The role of habitual inhibition in cognitive and emotional control (PID2022-136996NB-100)Project: Habit-nhibit, funded by Agencia Estatal de InvestigacionDuration: Temporary, 4 years (Full-time)Payment: Doctoral researcher contract for 4 yearsStudy Area: This doctoral project will focus on defining the behavioral and neural footprints of habitual inhibition. The research includes designing and validating innovative paradigms using neuroimaging and neuromodulation techniques. The investigation spans healthy participants and extends to studies involving patients with Parkinson's disease.
Join a growing multidisciplinary international team at the forefront of cognitive and clinical neuroscience. Led by Dr. Ignacio Obeso, the team collaborates with local hospitals and aims to elucidate the neurocognitive mechanisms behind cognitive control, reward, and habits. Research efforts also contribute to understanding how these cognitive processes dysfunction in clinical scenarios, such as Parkinson's disease and behavioral addictions.
