PhD Researcher

Richmond, Australia Monash University Full time
About the Project

The Monash University PhD scholarship is a 3-year fixed-term appointment that aims to investigate the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying the treatment of alcohol use disorders. The successful candidate will work as part of a multidisciplinary team to examine how cognitive biases vary across the spectrum of alcohol use disorder severity and how they are influenced by factors such as time of day, mood, and physical/social context.

Research Objectives
  • To deepen our knowledge of the cognitive psychology of addiction at the theoretical level
  • To broaden the practical application of cognitive bias modification interventions through improved delivery platforms, including smartphone-apps
Methodology

The candidate will receive training in and use a range of psychophysiological, cognitive, behavioural, and psychological measurement techniques in both clinical trials and experimental laboratory-based studies. The project will utilize the latest technologies in eye tracking, skin conductance, electrocardiography (ECG), electroencephalography (EEG), transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), automated facial expression analysis, and virtual reality.

Supervisory Team

The principal supervisor will be Professor Victoria Manning, a Professor of Addiction Studies at Monash University and the Head of Research and Workforce Development at Turning Point. The student will be co-supervised by Associate Professor Kristian Rotaru at Monash Business Behavioural Laboratory (MBBL).

Eligibility Requirements

This opportunity is available to domestic students only. Candidates will need to fulfill the Monash University minimum requirements for admission to a PhD.
