The postdoctoral fellows will be associated with the Cognitive Ethology Laboratory (Julia Fischer) and the Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory (Stefan Treue), including the Sensorimotor Group (Alexander Gail) and the Decision and Awareness Group (Igor Kagan). All four units are affiliated with the University of Göttingen and the German Primate Center.

The postdoctoral fellows are expected to study social interactions and decision-making in human and non-human primates. The research will be conducted together with other participating groups within the multidisciplinary Research Platform “Primate Cognition” (www.primate-cognition.eu). The main aim of the project is to develop a novel experimental platform for behavioral (and later electrophysiological / stimulation) studies of sensorimotor decision-making in competitive and cooperative social interaction settings, across humans and different non-human primate species.
