About this position

The Transylvanian Institute of Neuroscience (TINS) is recruiting for one Scientific Research Assistant (ACS) position intended for a postdoctoral researcher within the project “Mental health in a fast-paced society: A multilevel approach, from genes and molecules to brain networks and psychosocial systems” (PN-IV-P6-6.1-CoEx-2024-0139).

This is a part-time / full-time position in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, with a permanent contract and a starting date of 1 Nov 2026. The role is centered on computational and experimental work in brain research, especially neural data recording and analysis, EEG data recording, signal processing, and support for signal acquisition in laboratory experiments.

Applicants should hold a PhD or equivalent and have a background that supports computational analysis of large datasets. Suitable backgrounds include bioinformatics, computational biology, data science, computer science, computer engineering, electronics, biostatistics, mathematics, physics, biomedical engineering, or related fields. The post also requires at least 1 year of research experience in a brain research project, including EEG data recording, along with programming skills such as Matlab or Python, basic statistics, English proficiency, and the ability to work in an interdisciplinary team.

The selected researcher will document, report, and present results to the research team and collaborate closely with members of the experimental team to process acquired data using computational methods. Candidates must also meet the conditions set out in Law no. 183/2024 on the Statute of Research and Development Personnel regarding support staff in R&D activities.

The application deadline is 24 Oct 2026 at 09:00 (Europe/Bucharest). Applications should be sent by email to [email protected].
