So you want to join the Emotion Lab? You have come to the right place! Please address all enquiries directly at prof Lauri Nummenmaa.
Prospective PhD students
Funding for PhD students with medical degree capable of working with the patients in Finnish is currently available. Please contact Lauri if you are interested in doing a PhD with us. We may also consider candidates with a master’s degree on a related field (psychology, biomedical engineering, physics etc) from a well-respected university who have already secured funding for completing the PhD studies. We cannot supervise students without funding or support their applications to the University’s PhD program as all our PhD students are essentially research team members.
Master’s students
We are generally unable to supervise master’s theses except for medical students from the University of Turku. We can also host the medical rotation for the 1st year students and are delighted to take students on board every summer. Please see the faculty of medicine pages for details.
Visitors
We are happy to host international visiting academics who have their personal grant support and whose work relates to our goals. This also applies to e.g. visiting PhD students and Erasmus students who want to do a research internship (preferably several months) with us. We do not charge a bench fee.
Open positions
Whenever we have open fully funded PhD student or research scientist positions, they will be posted on the University of Turku website.
Participate in our studies
We are constantly recruiting participants for our studies. If you want to support Emotion Science, please see this page (in Finnish) for the studies that we are currently running.
