Tsinghua Laboratory of Brain and Intelligence (THBI) and Tomorrow Advancing Life (TAL) Foundation offer postdoctoral fellowships in brain science, cognition, and education. Research focus includes the impact of interactive technologies on education and the interface between technology, cognition, and education.
THBI is a newly-established interdisciplinary research institute within Tsinghua University. The institute aims to conduct cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research in the areas of brain sciences, artificial intelligence, and cognitive science. Research at THBI integrates basic fundamental research with advanced-technology applications. THBI provides an English-speaking working environment and state-of-the-art research facilities, including a nonhuman primate center, a neuro-imaging center, a high-performance computing center, a social interaction research center, a neuro-technology development center, and a child cognition center (laboratory for infants and toddlers). Postdoctoral scholars are expected to take full advantage of THBI’s interdisplinary research environment and to cooperate with the business community and industry to develop research-based industrial applications.
Outstanding young scientists from all disciplines who are passionate about brain science and educational research are encouraged to apply. We offer internationally competitive salaries and excellent research and living environments.
