Are you interested in exploring whether the cortical tracking of speech can predict later reading deficits in Developmental Dyslexia? Dr. Marie Lallier and Dr. Marina Kalashnikova are looking for a PhD student who work delevoping novel neuroimaging techniques.

Junior professorships are a new form of recruitment based on a research and teaching project, at the end of the pre-tenure contract, and after an assessment of the scientific value and professional aptitude of the successful candidate (M/F) for the chair by a committee, the candidate will have direct access without competition (subject to a favourable assessment) to a permanent post in the body of university professors (Decree no. 2021-1710 of 17 December 2021).

Join CropXR as PhD candidate! Develop computational models to translate drought & heat stress responses from a model plant species (Arabidopsis thaliana) to crops. Combine plant biology and computational modelling in a dynamic and interdisciplinary setting.

Interested in working on machine learning at the intersection of methods, neuroscience, and clinical applications? Join us at the Centre de Recerca Matemàtica! Apply by June 22.

This conference gathers leading experts in philosophy, biology and neuroscience who will be discussing free will. Cutting-edge research into the biological and neural basis of human and animal agency challenges deterministic assumptions, adding to doubts from quantum physics and pointing to non-reductionist views of agency and action causation. The conference explores the resulting prospects for a scientifically grounded, ontologically robust concept of 'libertarian' free will, breaking new ground in interdisciplinary research on free will.

“How, therefore, we must ask, is it possible for us to distinguish the living from the lifeless if we can describe both conceptually by the motion of inorganic corpuscles?”—Karl Pearson (The Grammar of Science, 1892).

Are you interested in understanding how can use use artificial intelligence to get fMRI (M/EEG)-to-image reconstructions of internally generated experience (visual imagery/dreams)? Prof. Roberto Bottini is looking for an interested student on computational neuroscience. Applications is rolling basis.

This joint PhD project between the University of Groningen and Utrecht University explores how simple prebiotic systems could evolve reliable information transfer. Apply by June 10.

The International Workshop on Self-Organizing and Evolving Active Matter (carried out by the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems) aims at providing an overview and identifying novel principles of self-organization in active matter specifically driven by two distinct mechanisms, which are active motion and proliferation.

Looking for something to do this fall? Don't miss the deadline for this fantastic event in Montreal! The 6th International Workshop on Active Inference wants to bring together researchers on active inference as well as related research fields in order to discuss current trends, novel results and real-world applications.
