About this position
Maynooth University is advertising a funded PhD position starting in September/October 2026 in the area of decision-making, computational neuroscience, cognitive science, and neural network modelling.
The project will investigate the computational and neural basis of decision-making abstracted from specific sensory or response modalities. The research will combine recurrent neural network (RNN) modelling with human EEG, making it a strong fit for students interested in multi-task RNNs, compositional cognition, human decision neuroscience, and related topics.
The position is supervised/announced by Peter Murphy at Maynooth University, with collaborators Sean Froudist-Walsh (University of Oxford and Trinity College Dublin) and Redmond O'Connell (Trinity College Dublin).
Funding comes from an ARDÚ Doctoral Scholarship from the Maynooth University Faculty of Science & Engineering. The award provides a €25,000/year stipend plus tuition fees for four years.
Applicants should have a background in neuroscience, cognitive science, computer science, psychology, or a similar discipline. Experience with neural network modelling, EEG, or psychophysics is desirable. Informal queries are welcome.
Deadline: 1 July 2026.
How to apply: Use the full details link provided in the post and follow the application instructions there.
