Call for Thesis Projects

Applications are currently on hold due to high demand.

​

We are currently seeking motivated Bachelor's and Master's students to join an interdisciplinary and international research project investigating the neural correlates of curiosity and its effects on learning and memory.

​

The project combines cutting-edge methods, including mobile EEG, virtual reality (VR), and full-body motion capture, to study how curiosity influences decision-making, behavior, and memory formation in naturalistic settings.

​

We offer thesis projects in several areas, including:

-Experimental data collection and analysis using EEG, VR, and motion-capture technologies
- Computational modeling and machine learning, including reinforcement learning approaches to integrate neural, behavioral, and kinematic data
- Investigation of the relationships between brain activity, full-body movement, decision-making, and memory performance

​

This is an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience with advanced neuroscience methods while contributing to an exciting international research collaboration.

If you are interested, please contact us with a brief description of your background (ideally CV) and research interests.
