Offer Description

The PhD student will be supervised by Bilge SAYIM in his research group at the École Normale Supérieure (ENS), PSL University, within the Laboratoire de Sciences Cognitives et Psycholinguistique (LSCP) in Paris, France. The position is part of a collaborative project with Dr. Wolf Harmening (University of Bonn, Germany).

A Master's degree (or equivalent) in cognitive science, psychology, or a related field is required. Prior experience in psychophysics and experimental psychology is desirable. Strong computational skills are essential, and proficiency in programming (e.g., Python or MATLAB) is an advantage. The position is for three years, with an ideal start date between May 1 and September 1, 2025.

The PhD project is focused on investigating spatial vision, appearance and redundancy masking. The research spans multiple levels, from the activation patterns of retinal cone cell ensembles (studied using adaptive optics imaging techniques) to the resulting visual appearance (measured with appearance-based methods).
