Descripción de la vacante

Maastricht University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher to predict brain stimulation via network dynamics. You will develop a computational framework combining latent-state estimation, dynamic causal modelling, and network control theory, and validate it on EEG–tACS and SEEG data from epilepsy patients.

You’ll publish in high-quality journals, collaborate across two groups, and supervise MSc students, contributing to societal impact in neuroscience.

Formación

• PhD in computational neuroscience or biomedical engineering or related field.
• Demonstrated programming skills in Python or MATLAB with reproducible code.
• Experience analysing neural time series (EEG/SEEG/MEG) and modelling.
• Knowledge of DCM, network control theory or whole-brain modelling is a plus.
• Strong math skills in linear algebra, dynamical systems, statistics.

Responsabilidades

• Develop and validate a framework combining latent-state estimation, DCM, and network control theory.
• Test methods in simulations with known ground truth.
• Apply the framework to EEG–tACS and SEEG datasets from epilepsy patients.
• Publish in peer‑reviewed journals and present at conferences.
• Collaborate with two Maastricht University groups and supervise MSc students.
