The position is part of an interdisciplinary department investigating the foundations of human social behavior, and more specifically the neural, developmental, hormonal mechanism underlying social cognition, social decision making, and social emotions such as compassion and empathy and their plasticity.
The successful candidate will be primarily involved in the analyses of a huge battery of different bio-psychological data from a large-scale and unique longitudinal study, the ReSource Project (www.resource-project.org), investigating the effects of affective and cognitive mental training on neural plasticity, stress- and health-related markers, subjective well-being, social and cognitive functioning and behavior.
Job description
- Analyses of cross-sectional data (N= 200) as well as one-year longitudinal change data in biological markers (e.g., cortisol, alpha-amylase, oxytocin, immune parameters, telomere length in blood samples).
- Analyses of the effect of relevant gene polymorphisms on individual differences in behavioral, subjective as well as brain plasticity.
- Co-ordination and processing of experience-sampling data (by means of smart phones) regarding subjective and stress-related experiences in daily life and their relationship to learning-dependent changes in diverse biomarkers (e.g., cortisol, immune parameters etc.).
- Interdisciplinary collaboration within the group in the social neuroscience department with experts in social- and affective neurosciences (including DTI, resting state, cortical thickness and functional fMRI), behavioral psychology (including social cognition, game theory, cognitive functioning etc.) and bio-psychology (including TSST, diurnal cortisol profiles) as well as working with external international collaborators with expertises in immunology, oxytocin and epigenetics.
