Psychology
£24,402 - £31,840
An opening exists for an experienced and enthusiastic neuroimager to
join the Centre for Speech, Language and the Brain at the University of
Cambridge. Research in the Centre focuses on the cognitive neuroscience
of language, conceptual knowledge, and the neurocognition of ageing,
combining behavioural studies with neuroimaging techniques and working
with healthy and brain-damaged adults. The Centre has access to a
research-dedicated 3T Siemens MR scanner, and EEG and MEG facilities.
We currently use methods such as fMRI analysis, voxel based
structure-function correlational analyses, DTI analyses, and functional
and anatomical connectivity analyses.
You should have a PhD (or equivalent) and some postdoctoral experience
in a relevant discipline, experience and expertise in fMRI and DTI,
either experience of computer programming or proven ability to develop
new algorithms for image, signal or data processing applications, and an
understanding of the basis of MR imaging. Given the nature of our
research, you should be a native English speaker or fully fluent in
English. The post is funded by the MRC until 28 February 2011 and has a
flexible start date.
