Role overview
Mission Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF)-funded project on human motivation, stress physiology, immersive behavioral testing, and multimodal data analysis The Laboratory of Behavioral Genetics at EPFL, led by Prof.
Carmen Sandi, is seeking an outstanding postdoctoral researcher with a strong technical and quantitative profile to join a SNSF-funded project investigating human motivation and stress responsiveness.
The project will develop and validate individually calibrated behavioral tasks in immersive virtual reality (VR) to quantify effort-based motivation, vigor, persistence and goal-directed versus habitual control.
