[CogSci] Two-fully funded PhD scholarships at Trinity College Dublin

[Lorijn Zaadnoordijk]

How does the human mind develop? The FOUNDCOG team will address this question using neuroimaging of infants, in their critical first year after birth, to capture the development of the brain and its functions. We will interpret the results by comparing them to computational models of learning from artificial intelligence. In addition to characterising the development of the human mind, we aim to understand how it is disrupted by brain injury and to produce new diagnostic tools for neonatologists.

Two fully-funded PhD Scholarships are available.
