[CogSci] 3 PhD positions interpersonal synchrony (EEG hyperscanning)

[Suzanne Dikker]

We seek 3 PhD candidates to conduct movement, physiology, and hyperscanning
EEG research during face-to-face communication in the lab and during
psychotherapy, as part of a 4-year research project *The Rhythm of
Relating: How Emotional Sharing Emerges from Interpersonal Synchrony in
Movements, Physiology and Neural Activity*

Recent M.A. or M.S. graduates with experience in mobile brain and body
imaging, (neuro)physiology, signal processing, and affinity with
brain-computer-interface technology are especially encouraged to apply.

The positions are based at the Emotion Regulation Lab at the Department of
Clinical Psychology at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
<http://emotionregulationlab.com/?page_id=45>. Research and training will
be carried out in collaboration with the Max Planck Center for Language,
Music, and Emotion <https://clame.nyu.edu/> (NYU | Frankfurt), Institut
Pasteur <http://www.extrospection.eu/> (Paris), and Bar-Ilan University
<https://psychology.biu.ac.il/en/node/1322> (Israel), among other

*Project description*

When people engage in emotional sharing, they often display the same
rhythms in their movements, heart rate, and brain activity. The project
investigates how such synchronous rhythms contribute to interpersonal
emotion sharing both in laboratory settings and during psychotherapy.
