Postdoctoral position in visual working memory and attention — University of Granada, Spain

We are inviting applications for a full-time postdoctoral position at the Mind, Brain and Behaviour Research Centre (CIMCYC), University of Granada, working with Juan Linde-Domingo and Fabiano Botta.

The successful candidate will join Reconstructive Dynamics of Visual Working Memory under Attention Shifts (ReDAS), a collaborative project within CIMCYC’s María de Maeztu Unit of Excellence. The project investigates how attention shapes visual working memory, combining behavioural experiments, EEG, multivariate decoding and computational modelling.

The researcher will contribute to experimental design and programming, behavioural and EEG data collection and analysis, computational modelling, publications and open science activities.

Applicants must hold a doctoral degree. Relevant training and experience in EEG, scientific programming, attention and working memory, and computational modelling will be valued, alongside publications and international research experience.

The expected start is January–February 2027, with funding currently confirmed until March 2028. A further extension may be possible.

Applications are open from 13 to 26 November 2026, closing at 23:59 Spanish mainland time.
