We are opening a two-year research assistant position in the Subjectivity, Brain and Viscera group led by Catherine Tallon-Baudry. Your main tasks are to recruit participants and run experiments probing the link between cognition and interoception, contribute to process data (electroencephalogram, respiration, electrocardiogram, electrogastrogram, ...), document experimental procedures and data analysis pipeline.

Abstract: New probes now allow high density recordings of activity in primates. We report on findings from two collaborations with the Buffalo lab in which primates were trained to perform complex tasks, in which we explore the emergence of schemas. In the first study, macaque monkeys navigated in a visually rich virtual reality environment. We find that while many neurons in hippocampus show place-like responses, the population as a whole tends to primarily encode relevant task epochs.
