Post-doctoral position to contribute to our research on multisensory perception using modelling and EEG approaches

Applications are invited for a full-time post-doctoral position to contribute to our research on multisensory perception using modelling and EEG approaches. The project is led by Salvador Soto-Faraco, https://www.upf.edu/web/mrg, at the Center for Brain and Cognition in Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona). The position is funded by the project ‘Multisensory Integration and Conflict’, ref. AEI-PID2019-108531GB-I00/AEI/10.13039/501100011033, financed by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities (MCIU), State Research Agency (AEI).

The investigator will work in a team to develop state of the art research on how the conflict monitoring system plays a role in multisensory perception by regulating different possible representations of the incoming sensory inputs. They will address how cognitive conflict framework can be used to ground current accounts of multisensory perception based on Bayesian principles and can be generalised to perceptual inference in general.

Yearly Gross Salary: 33.715,68€

Senior Postdoctoral Researcher in the project Bone strength analysis for osteoporosis management and fracture prevention (BONE STRENGTH - CPP2021-008574)

BONE STRENGTH is a public-private collaboration project funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (MICINN) and Agency of Research (AEI) that focusses on the prediction of fragile bone fractures in osteoporosis, out of routine clinical explorations. The collaboration will take place between the technology-based company 3D Shaper Medical SL, and the Barcelona Centre for New Medical Technologies (BCN MedTech) of the Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF). Both 3D Shaper Medical SL and UPF are in Barcelona, Spain.

The successful Candidate will be a senior postdoctoral researcher, with proven experience in FEA and computational bone biomechanics. He/She will be based at DTIC, UPF and will be responsible for the proper development and assessments of the models and simulations, in collaboration with 3D Shaper Medical SL. Scientific and technical competencies are necessary in patient-specific finite element modelling, continuum mechanics, plasticity and constitutive material modelling, and scientific programming. Furthermore, previous experience in tissue multiscale modelling, and in verification, validation and uncertainty quantification for finite element models will be largely welcome. The Researcher will become progressively responsible for the coordination of a small team. He/She will report periodically to the respective PI of UPF and 3D Shaper Medical SL, to ensure (i) that the timelines of the project and deliverables are met, and (ii) that the project results can be properly disseminated through scientific and medical congresses and journals. Hence, communication, teamwork and leadership skills will be chiefly important.

At UPF, the successful Candidate will evolve in the highly international environment of DTIC. There, he/she will be able to interact directly with the 60+ investigators of BCN MedTech who gather expertise in medical image analysis and processing, machine learning and data science, complexity analysis, medical devices, and computational biomechanics and biology. Daily working interactions related to the project shall mostly happen with the teams of both the BMMB and the SIMBIOSys group. Depending on performance in the project, career consolidation at DTIC might be promoted, according to opportunities. While day to day working language will be English, Spanish language fosters social interactions and (the learning thereof) is highly recommended.

The employment for BONE STRENGTH shall be for a period of up to 2,5 years. The successful Candidate will be offered a full-time postdoctoral research contract for the implementation of BONE STRENGTH. The number of working hours is 37,5 h per week and 1640 h per year. The gross salary is 38.789,04 € per year. On top of this, social benefits (health, unemployment, retirement) are covered by the employer (UPF).
