An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Senior Research Associate to join the School of Psychology at UEA to conduct studies in the field of the cognitive neuroscience of memory. The project, funded by an Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) grant led by Dr Louis Renoult, involves a programme of experimental work with the aim to reach a better understanding of how semantic and episodic memory differ in their representational content, in related subjective experience, and in neural substrates in young and older adults. Using a variety of behavioural, fMRI and EEG tasks, it is hoped that this research project will help break new ground in our understanding of these fundamental aspects of cognition. You will be responsible for coordinating data collection, designing in person and on-line experiments, analysing the data, and contributing to dissemination and impact activities.
