Clinic for Neurology

PhD Position in 'Neuroscience of Motivation in Neurorehabilitation' 80 %

Start of employment 01.07.2026, temporary

The Neuroscience of Cognition and Motivation in Rehabilitation Lab (NeuroCoRe) of Prof. A. Luft at the University Hospital of Zurich and the Lake Lucern Institute (LLUI) is dedicated to translating motivational and cognitive neuroscience to develop innovative approaches in neurorehabilitation. Our core research interest is to understand the neuronal and behavioral correlates of motivation.

We are looking for a motivated PhD student with a background in cognitive or computational neuroscience.

Project background
We seek to elucidate the neuronal mechanisms of motivation. This project aims to develop a biofeedback procedure to induce motivation for cognitive and motor effort in healthy and stroke subjects. To this end, we will record the neuronal activation of motivation and effort electrophysiologically, using high-density EEG. The corresponding autonomous response will be assessed with cardiological parameters.

Your responsibilities

Implementation of a cognitive and motor task-based reward paradigm.
Hands-on data acquisition of high-density EEG and heart rate measurements.
Development of new study designs and participant recruitment.
Advanced signal processing.
Dissemination of research findings through scientific publications and presentations.

Your profile

We are looking for a candidate with:

A Master's degree (or nearing completion) in neuroscience, psychology, neurophysiology, biomedical engineering, health sciences and technology, or a related field.
Strong interest in technical skills, particularly in programming (e.g., Matlab, Python) and data analysis.
Experience with EEG is desirable.
Strong communication skills, scientific and creative reasoning, and a very collaborative spirit.
Structured, reliable, proactive and well-organized personality.
Strong interest and aptitude to work with vulnerable populations.
Flexibility to travel to Vienna and international conferences.
Native or excellent (C1) German and English speaker
Holds a driving licence and valid Swiss work permit or is eligible to obtain one.

Information on your application

We look forward to receiving your application via email with the following documents until 30 May 2026:

Curriculum Vitae including educational history, full list of publications, awards, etc.
Research motivation statement of max. two A4 pages covering your interests, goals, experiences, and how they would relate to and fit in with proposed research domain and
activities
