Student Assistant interested in Master's Thesis opportunity

Are you passionate about diving into research on attention in non-human primates (NHPs)? Our research employs a paradigm featuring a state-of-the-art computer model of a rhesus monkey head, developed by our colleagues at the Computational Sensomotorics Lab. Join our team at the Thier Lab as a student assistant and pave the way towards your Master's thesis!

Position: Student assistant (incl. Master's Thesis)

We're looking for a motivated individual eager to delve into a challenging research project on the impact of social cues on attention modulation, gaining hands-on experience with handling and conducting psychophysics studies on NHPs, and data analysis. This position includes transforming your project into a Master's thesis.

If interested, please contact
Prof. Peter Thier at thieruni-tuebingen.de,
