Dear colleagues,
The Translational Neuromodeling Unit at the Swiss Federal Institute of
Technology (ETH Zurich) invites applications for a PhD student position.
The project will focus on NMDA receptors and fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis.
Please see the details about the available position below.
Best regards,
Gabor Stefanics

Open position for a doctoral student (PhD) at TNU Zurich*
The *Translational Neuromodeling Unit* (*TNU*; Director: Prof. K.E.
Stephan) is a division of the Institute of Biomedical Engineering at the
University of Zurich and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH
Zurich). Its mission is to translate advances in computational
neuroscience into diagnostic tools for psychiatry and neurology. To this
end, the TNU brings together computational scientists, psychologists and
clinicians who jointly develop mathematical models of maladaptive
behaviour and brain disease, and evaluate their diagnostic use in
patient studies. For more information, see
http://www.translationalneuromodeling.org.
Within a custom-designed building, the TNU houses a research clinic with
a wide range of experimental facilities (EEG, eye-tracking,
pharmacological, psychophysics and behavioural labs).
The TNU invites applications for a
*Doctoral student (PhD) position* (duration 3 years)
The topic of this PhD project concerns investigations of
pathophysiological mechanisms in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) by
computational neuroimaging, with a particular focus on (i) EEG
investigations of the role of NMDA receptors in MS, and (ii) fMRI
studies of mechanisms of fatigue in MS. The project involves both data
collection (EEG and fMRI) in patients and healthy controls, as well as
advanced data analysis based on neurobiologically informed computational
models for inferring on connectivity and synaptic processes. The ideal
candidate for this position has a strong interest in clinically relevant
empirical research, as well as an ambition to develop skills in
computational modelling.
*Qualifications and requirements:*
• education in a relevant field (e.g., Psychology, Biology, Medicine,
Neuroscience, Statistics, Physics, Computer Science, or Engineering)
• good programming skills
• fluent German and English
• ability to work independently
• a team player attitude
*Additionally, the ideal applicant has experience with:*
• EEG and fMRI (data collection and analysis)
• working with patients
• solid statistical knowledge
The project will start as soon as possible after January 2016. The
salary will be in the range recommended by the Swiss National Science
Foundation (approximately CHF 50,000 p.a.).
The TNU, located in central Zurich, offers a young, collegial and highly
international community, and an exciting interdisciplinary scientific
environment at the intersection between computational neuroscience,
psychiatry and neurology.
Interested students should submit their applications including CV, names
and contact information of two references, and a short letter of
motivation (outlining their interests and explaining why they meet the
above requirements) by email in a single pdf to Gabor Stefanics
(tnu-jobs(a)biomed.ee.ethz.ch <mailto:tnu-jobs@biomed.ee.ethz.ch>).
Applications which do not fulfil these formal criteria will not be
considered. Shortlisted applicants will be invited for interviews.
Informal inquiries can be directed to Dr. G. Stefanics
(stefanics(a)biomed.ee.ethz.ch <mailto:stefanics@biomed.ee.ethz.ch>).
Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until
the position is filled.

Novel evidence for the argumentative theory of reasoning
The argumentative theory of reasoning suggests that the main function of human reasoning is to argue: to find arguments to convince others, and to evaluate others' arguments to be convinced when warranted. Support for this theory has come so far from reviewing work in several domains of psychology. Here I will present novel experimental evidence supporting the theory's predictions: 1) argumentative competence is universal and early developing; 2) the improvement of performance in group discussion stems from sound argumentative competence; 3) there is an asymmetry in the way people evaluate their own and other people's arguments

Perceiving and Interacting with Social Agents: Insights from Brain and
Behaviour
The ability to perceive and interact with others in a social world
occurs in an effortless manner, but is underpinned by complex cognitive
and neural processes. In this talk, we review recent evidence from our
laboratory from behavioural and brain imaging studies that uncover
deeper insights into social cognition and brain function. Using
paradigms that involve action learning, imitation, person perception and
theory of mind tasks, we highlight the importance of considering
distributed and connected brain circuits when aiming to understand how
we perceive and interact with social agents.
We are looking forward to see you at the talk!

Ceteris Paribus Laws and Minutis Rectis Laws
Tuesday, 10 November 2015, 5.30 PM, Zrinyi 14, Room 412
ABSTRACT
Special science generalizations admit of exceptions. Among the class of non-exceptionless special science generalizations, I distinguish (what I will call) minutis rectis (mr) generalizations from the more familiar category of ceteris paribus (cp) generalizations. I argue that the challenges involved in showing that mr generalizations can play the law role are underappreciated, and quite di erent from those involved in showing that cp generalizations can do so. I outline some potential strategies for meeting the challenges posed by mr generalizations.

Dear Cognitive Folks,
The next Fluencia Party will be on the 12th November (Thursday) starting at
8pm at Élesztő,
Tűzoltó utca 22.(close to Corvin).
Fluencia is a monthly organized informal "jamboree" for cogsci-,
psychology-related students (undergrads, grads), professors, researchers
from many different universities in Hungary. The idea and motivation is to
facilitate interactions, communication, collaboration among researchers
working here, get to know others and others' interests, topics, etc. And,
of course, to have some drinks and fun in a friendly environment.
Everybody is welcome to attend! If you have any further questions, do not
hesitate to ask.
All the best,
Dezso
