Description of the research topic:
Currently available data suggests that COVID-19 affects cognitive functions. However, it is not clear how long these changes last, or exactly what functions are affected, or what biological or psychological changes trigger them. In a comprehensive biomedical project involving several research groups, the doctoral student would investigate the cognitive implications of long-term changes using traditional cognitive tests and electrophysiological methods.
