The Institute of Neuroscience and the School of Psychology at Trinity College Dublin invite applications for multiple postdoctoral positions based in the Irrationality Lab, led by Prof. Konstantinos Tsetsos.
These positions are part of the European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator Grant “The Dynamics of Attribute Weighting in Multiattribute Choice” (DYNATT) awarded to Prof. Tsetsos. The project aims to uncover the neural and computational mechanisms underlying preference variability by asking how the human brain shapes, maintains, and revises preferences for different attributes during decision-making. To achieve the aims of the project, we will combine magnetoencephalography (OPM-MEG), computational modelling, and behavioural paradigms to decode and model multiattribute preferences at high temporal resolution. This approach will provide mechanistic insights on the drivers of preference variability, with potential applications in both clinical and applied behavioural science domains.
The successful candidates will design and conduct experiments using MEG, analyse neural and behavioural data, and develop computational models of decision-making. Strong quantitative and programming skills and experience with E/MEG analysis are required.
Appointments are available for at least three years, with flexible start dates up to November 2026. Positions will be remunerated according to the IUA salary scales for postdoctoral researchers, commensurate with experience and qualifications.
Application deadline: January 15th 2026.
