… European Law (MCEL), as well as other relevant staff of the Law Faculty and external speakers. Migration is a politically salient issue. Not only is migration present in media headlines and political discussions, in recent years there have been significant developments in its legislation and governance. Most prominently, last May the EU co-legislators agreed on a complete overhaul of the Union’s acquis on migration, asylum, and integrated border management (a set of measures that have become known … streamlining migration management in its broader external relations and diplomacy. These developments raise interesting and pressing legal questions. By focussing on ‘Migration Law and Governance’ this year’s MCEL master thesis project provides you with the opportunity to engage with these important legal and societal developments. Within the project you can write a thesis on a wide variety of issues. For example, topics could cover, but are not limited to: - Interplay between key EU constitutional principles and asylum, …

… employment throughout their working lives, while remaining healthy, motivated, skilled and productive as well as policies and strategies on a meso and macro level supporting this. At the meso level organizations recognize the importance of SE as it can help improve and sustain productivity, reduce absenteeism, and retain valuable employees and their skills. From a broader societal perspective (macro level) SE is increasingly important in minimizing labour shortages and enabling individual labour … and climate change to name but two. Main SE policies and strategies involve healthy ageing, lifelong development (e.g., reskilling, upskilling and informal learning), labour market mobility and work (re)design. Stimulating SE, however, comes with different challenges. In this track, we will explore these challenges and new perspectives on, and directions for, SE research and practice. We discuss how societies, organizations and individuals can get involved in it, focussing on equal … change mitigation. o The challenges of the (uncertain) future of labour and accompanying sustainable employability policies.

… New York University, Shanghai), Prof. Pekka Santtila (Åbo Akademi University, Finland; New York University, Shanghai) Proposal (250 words): Introduction: True and false memories are like two sides of human’s memory system. On the one hand, people can remember what have happened months and years ago. However, on the other hand, there are always memory errors occurring. Even for people with highly superior autobiographical memories, who can accurately remember every day details since mid-childhood, false memories are inevitable to them. The question is why false memories persist after millions of years’ evolution? We and some … using various experimental paradigms such as associative binding paradigms and the Deese-Roediger/McDermott false memory paradigm. Impact: This project will enhance theoretical understanding of memory. Requirements candidate: Highly motivated student with good English communication skills and proactive and resolute attitude. Keywords: true memory, false memory, memory mechanisms, developmental trend, binding Top 5 selected publications: 1. Otgaar, H., Howe, M.L., Smeets, T., & Brackmann, N. (2016). …

… Conny PhD Proposal Introduction: Active mnemonic control describes the repeated voluntary retrieval (positive control) or suppression (negative control) of memories, leading to memory enhancement or voluntary forgetting, respectively. People with stress-related disorders such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression show deficits in negative mnemonic control. In the brain, stress hormones activate the salience network and downregulate the executive control network including … right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (rdlPFC). The rdlPFC has been suggested to be the key neural substrate for mnemonic control. Hypothesis and Objectives: We propose that the downregulation of the rdlPFC network in the aftermath of stress interferes with successful negative mnemonic control, which in turn promotes the development of stress-related disorder symptology. This research projects aims at investigating 1) how and to what extent stress affects memory control, 2) how this is reflected in neural oscillations that have been associated with cognitive control and 3) whether this effect can be counteracted by brain stimulation. Setting and Methods: Combining behavioural measures with EEG, study 1 will investigate how stress (vs. control condition) affects mnemonic control and how this is reflected in the communication between these …
