Zuzanna Kotwicka - Research Assistant

Zuzanna Kotwicka obtained a BSc in Psychology and a MSc in Neuropsychology at Maastricht University, where she also worked as a Research Assistant after finishing her studies. During that time, Zuzanna worked with UHF 7T MRI, focusing on human thalamic anatomy. Zuzanna is very interested in understanding how thalamic circuits interact with broader memory and cognitive systems, and in applying multimodal brain imaging approaches to study those processes.

Currently, Zuzanna is a Research Assistant in Paweł Tacikowski's lab, where she's using EEG and fMRI to investigate brain processes and networks involved in learning and memory in humans.

Marta Ângelo - Research Assistant

Marta Ângelo holds a BSc in Biomedical Engineering, from Instituto Superior Técnico, and an MSc in Cognitive Science and Artificial Intelligence from Tilburg University. During her MSc thesis, she worked on a comparative study between BOLD and dfMMRI for layer-specificity in the visual cortex, using connective-field and population receptive field modelling. She spent 10 months in Amsterdam, completing a traineeship in 'Research and Innovation in Health Informatics'.

She is currently a research assistant at the Universidade de Coimbra, in Joana Carvalho's lab at CogBooster, starting to potentially explore visual prediction and artificial scotomas, using multivariate, machine learning and other computational approaches to fMRI data.

Esta semana recebemos a visita de um grupo de pequenos/as exploradores/as do Colégio de Gaia para falar sobre o cérebro e a visão e mostrar algumas das técnicas que usamos para olhar para o cérebro e compreender a mente humana.

Recebemos também um grupo de participantes do 7º Congresso da Ordem dos Psicólogos Portugueses, no âmbito de uma visita às várias linhas de investigação do Cineicc - Fpce-Uc, para conversar sobre ciência fundamental.

Voltem sempre! 🙌

🎯 Call for Research Assistant – Blindness and Brain Plasticity

We are seeking candidates for a project investigating how the brain reorganizes in congenital blindness, focusing on crossmodal cortical and subcortical plasticity, using behavioral testing and fMRI with blind and sighted participants.

The position involves:
👉 liaising with blind and sighted research participants — explaining the project, arranging their visits, and supporting them throughout testing;
👉 supporting the acquisition of behavioral and fMRI data;
👉 contributing to data analysis and scientific writing;
👉 helping with project outreach and dissemination (conferences, communications).

The work will be carried out at the Faculdade de Psicologia e Ciências da Educação da Universidade de Coimbra with full access to imaging and behavioral facilities associated with the Proaction Lab and collaborating groups.

Required:
👉 Master's degree in Psychology, Cognitive Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering, Life Sciences, or a related area;
👉 Fluent in Portuguese — this is essential, since the role involves explaining the study and running sessions with Portuguese-speaking participants;
👉 Good with people — comfortable putting participants at ease and explaining the project clearly, whether on the phone or in person;
👉 Interest or experience in quantitative/analytical work (data analysis, programming, statistics).

Desirable (not required):
👉 Prior experience working with people with visual impairments or other special populations;
👉 Interest in eventually pursuing a PhD.
