University Nijmegen Faculty of Social Sciences Nijmegen, (Gelderland), 40
hours per week
Job description
------------------------------
This PhD project is intended to advance our knowledge of neural information
processing in human sensorimotor control. Various regions in the brain play
important roles in motor control, but their intrinsic recursive architecture
has prevented to clearly distinguish their exact functional contributions.
By using fMRI and developing novel statistical analysis methods, the PhD
student will investigate the neural implementation of eye-hand coordination
in the human brain. This four-year project will involve the joined efforts
of two cooperating institutes (Nijmegen Institute for Cognition and
Information (NICI) and the FC Donders Centre for Cognitive NeuroImaging
(FCDC), both at the Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands.
