[CogSci] postdoc on influence of long-term memory processes on creativity & social cognition

[Raphael Samuel Matthew Kaplan]

Dear colleagues,

The Decision and Memory group(decisionandmemory.org) at the Universitat
Jaume I in Castellon de la Plana, Spain seeks a motivated postdoctoral
scholar to study the influence of long-term memory processes on creativity
and social cognition using computational cognitive science and cognitive
neuroscience methods(neuroimaging, behavior, and computational models). The
position is expected to last 2 years and involves applying social and
semantic network models for novel online behavioral and fMRI paradigms.

Competitive applicants will have a PhD in cognitive science, experimental
psychology, mathematical psychology, computational neuroscience, cognitive
neuroscience, or a related field. Applicants are ideally looking to build
innovative careers in academia or big data analysis in industry. Postdoc
candidates that have recently completed (or will complete) their PhD are
particularly encouraged to apply, where they will have ample opportunity to
be sponsored for regional, national, and European independent research
fellowships.

Some experience programming in R or Python, designing psychology
experiments, or developing computational models are required for this
position. Experience or interest using semantic or social network analyses,
behavioral models, computational neuroscience models, or fMRI methods is a
plus. The position is expected to commence this autumn. Research in our
group currently focuses on how human episodic and spatial memory influence
decision-making and social cognition.

To apply, interested candidates should directly contact the group director,
Raphael Kaplan at *kaplan at uji.es <kaplan at uji.es>* with a *1-2 paragraph
cover/motivation letter*, *CV*, and *contact info for three references *by *May
22, 2023*. Please feel free to direct any questions about the position to
Dr. Kaplan.

We would be grateful if you could circulate this position to any students
or colleagues.

Kind regards,
Raphael Kaplan
