Losing the ability to precisely time movements can lead to debilitating motor disorders. Our research addresses this challenge in two ways:
As a PhD candidate, you will contribute to both aspects, from studying the brain’s control of movement to applying these insights in the development of closed-loop brain–computer interfaces aimed at restoring motor function in models of motor disorder. Some part of the role may involve teaching and up to 0.1 FTE of your time may entail teaching activities.
A fully funded PhD position is available starting in January 2026. You will receive comprehensive training and mentoring within an interdisciplinary and international research environment. This position offers excellent opportunities to present your work at academic conferences, engage in collaborative research projects, and actively develop both your academic and professional profile.
