Postdoctoral Researcher in social/cognitive neuroscience with focus on social learning, Karolinska Institutet, Sweden

The Mechanisms of Social Behavior lab at Karolinska Institutet (PI: Björn Lindström) is seeking a highly qualified postdoctoral researcher. Funded by the European Research Council and the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, our lab develops new frameworks for understanding the psychological, neural, and computational mechanisms of social learning, transmission, and cultural evolution. Our interdisciplinary research combines behavioral experiments, computational modeling (RL/cognitive), brain imaging, and multi-agent simulations. We offer a dynamic, international environment for conducting cutting-edge research at the highest level. The position is for a limited period of two years, with the possibility of a one-year extension. 

Application deadline: June 18, 20205
