- Background in hyperscanning methods, particularly with functional Near-InfraRed Spectroscopy (fNIRS).
- Experience in neuroimaging data analysis.

**Principales activités**:

- Design scientific tasks
- Carry out experiments
- Analyze their results

**Compétences**:
Technical skills and level required: Solid knowledge in neurosciences, background in neuroimaging techniques (e.g. EEG, fNIRS), and advanced competence in programming in languages such as Python, Matlab and R. Experience with Aurora and Hyperscan software is a plus.

Languages: French, English

Relationship skills: Ability to work in a team, and collaborate with others from different disciplines and backgrounds. Ability to work independently. Ability to manage other team members.

Theoretical background in one or several of the following field is desirable: computer science, cognitive science, linguistics, sociolinguistics, psychology, or computational neuroscience.
