[CogSci] Experimental Psychologist / Neuroscientist position at Ababax (Berlin, Germany)

[Hanni Kiiski]

Experimental Psychologist / Neuroscientist (Research Scientist)

Ababax is a Berlin-based digital health startup aiming to create next-generation digital treatments. We develop Digital Drugs - non-invasive brain stimulation techniques - to treat the dysfunctional circuits in the brain. Our team of multidisciplinary experts develop high-end solutions by leveraging the latest findings in neuroscience and psychology and combining them with cutting-edge technology and AI. Think this is a great cause? So do we!
We are looking for an experienced and highly motivated researcher with strong experimental skills and a background or interest in working with brain-related conditions to bring our new intervention ideas through experimental and clinical validation.
In this role, your responsibility will be to design, conduct, analyse and interpret the results from experimental studies using behavioural and physiological (e.g., EEG) methods in university and clinical settings. As part of our interdisciplinary team, you will actively participate in these studies that investigate scientific and clinical research questions with an emphasis on transitioning our findings into a scientifically validated, effective and user-friendly treatment for healthy and clinical populations. As a startup straddling the line between academia and industry, this represents an ideal middle-ground both for talented academic researchers looking to see their ideas translate into real-world products and for clinicians and industry experts looking to engage more with academic partners and basic research.
With a focus on conducting and facilitating experimental studies with healthy and clinical populations, you will be a dynamic team player who is driven by a passion for our mission. If you are excited to have a meaningful, direct, and positive impact on people's lives, then you will find yourself in good company with the Ababax team.

What you will do:

  *   Design, conduct and analyse online and in-person experiments using behavioural, (neuro)physiological and other relevant measures alongside the science team.
  *   Take ownership of your research areas and guide their development alongside the company goals.
  *   Support the planning, implementing and monitoring of the experimental work.
  *   Contrast and assess various methodological and theoretical approaches to inform experimental and clinical rationale.
  *   Communicating and documenting research in written and spoken form to internal and external stakeholders.
  *   Liaise with our scientific, clinical and other advisers and help establish academic and non-academic collaborations.
  *   Direct the research efforts between the team, our partners and collaborators, and participants.

What you will need:

  *   A Master's degree or a PhD in Experimental Psychology, Neuroscience, or a similar computational subject involving data analysis, programming, and other relevant research skills.
  *   Experience in conducting experiments with behavioural, EEG, or physiological methods. Experience in conducting studies in web-based platforms and/or with clinical populations is a plus.
  *   Strong interest in the research fields of perception, cognitive, affective, or applied psychology or neuroscience.
  *   Strong and proven experimental and programming skills (e.g., MATLAB, python, R), enabling you to design, develop and analyse experimental data within our interdisciplinary team.
  *   Strong interpersonal and communication skills in English (spoken and written), enabling you to both conduct studies with different types of populations and to coordinate with the science team and our partners. German is a plus.

What we offer:

  *   An opportunity to work on exciting and challenging projects at the intersection between science, health, and technology.
  *   You will be integrated into the broad digital-health focused network at Eternity Health, which through its various arms aims to challenge and accelerate the development of next-gen digital healthcare.
  *   A competitive salary, paired with our core objective of making healthcare more equitable, accessible, and effective.
  *   A chance to join our growing multidisciplinary team of talented and creative psychologists, neuroscientists, engineers, data scientists, and developers, where you will be at the forefront of exciting advances in digital health care.
