丹麦阿尔胡斯大学2020年招收博士后职位

The Department of Food Science is seeking applications for a 2.5 year postdoctoral researcher position within the area of mutltisensory flavour perception, with a focus on virtual and augmented reality. The position is available from 1. July 2020 or as soon as possible thereafter.

The position

The position is funded by the cross-disciplinary research project “Virtual and augmented flavours:

Extending human flavour perception via novel sensory inputs”. The project aims to develop a unified psychological, behavioural, and neurological framework of human flavour perception which takes into account both food-intrinsic and -extrinsic factors. By using novel sensory inputs offered by virtual and augmented reality, the project will make substantial contributions to our knowledge of how the brain integrates information across various sensory modalities to form people’s cognitive and emotional responses to food.

The postdoc candidate will be responsible for 1) developing new experimental methodologies and theoretical models in collaboration with the wider research project team, 2) designing and carrying out cross-disciplinary research on multisensory flavour perception in the lab and in public venues (e.g. museum installations), 3) co-supervising PhD and Masters students in related research, and 4) contributing to the development of future research projects.

The candidate will contribute to all steps of the research from literature review to experimental planning, data handling and publication of scientific papers in high impact journals.

The position is part of the science team ‘Food Quality Perception and Society” in the Department of Food Science. The science team has a strong research profile in sensory and consumer science, with

multidisciplinary research networks spanning psychology, physiology, computer science, design, and neuroscience. Furthermore, the science team has access to state of the art well-established sensory and analytical facilities with a professional; trained and tested sensory panel and an ISO-approved sensory laboratory, as well as capacity for virtual reality and biometric data collection.

Qualifications:

The successful candidate is expected to have:

PhD degree and research experience in one or more of the following areas Food Science, Experimental Psychology, Cognitive Neuroscience, Sensory and Consumer Science, Computer Science, or Interactive Design.

Prior experience with psychophysics, smell/taste research, programming, and statistical analysis of behavioural data would be advantageous

A strong background in study design, data collection and advanced statistical analyses.

Demonstratable capacity for creative thinking, research independence, and acquiring expertise in new research methods and technologies.
