              neurophysiology and / or behavior). Experience in data
              analysis or programming using MATLAB/Python/R etc. is
              strongly preferred. Experience in methods to obtain and
              interpret neurophysiological data, and /or behavioral
              assays is highly desirable. Applicants with strong
              analytical skills and a flair for handling large datasets
              are particularly encouraged to apply. The working language
              in the lab is English.<span> </span></span> </span></span></font></p>
