Postdoctoral research positions in Decision Neuroscience
O’Doherty lab, Trinity College Institute of Neuroscience, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland.
Two post-doctoral research fellowships are available to investigate the neural mechanisms of reward-learning, choice and decision making in the human brain in the laboratory of Prof. John P. O’Doherty at Trinity College Dublin. The posts, part of a research programme funded by Science Foundation Ireland, will involve the design and conduct of fMRI experiments in humans, and the application of computational models of choice and decision making to behavioural and neural data.
The project will be carried out using state of the art MRI facilities at the Trinity College Institute of Neuroscience, Trinity College
Dublin, Ireland.

PhD Position in Applied Microeconomics
Department of Economics
Job description
This project analyses the impact of recent policy changes on various aspects relating to the agri-food sectors in Ireland and other EU countries focussing in particular on Denmark and the Netherlands. Using the Irish National Farm Survey a micro approach is taken that allows specific research questions relating to:
- productivity and competitiveness;
- the changing structure of production systems in terms of farm numbers, the role of economies of scale, specialisation and system switching; and
- the wider rural community to be addressed.
The availability of a comparable survey for Denmark and the Netherlands presents a unique opportunity for the Irish experience to be compared to that of similar regions of Europe facing the same set of constraints but with significantly different sectors in terms of structure, organisation and the role of government supports This study will provide valuable lessons for policy by deepening our understanding of the important issues facing the agri-food sector in Ireland at the micro level and observing how the Irish experience compares to that of similar European regions. The project will also explore alternative uses for land post-decupling focussing in particular on opportunities in relation to organic farming and alternative energy sources drawing on the successes of the Danish experience.
The PhD student will be based at the Department of Economics, Trinity College Dublin. The student will spend some time at the University of Kent in the UK and at the University of Wageningen in the Netherlands working with leading economists on farm survey data and project related modelling issues.
