>
> For our Institute of Neuroscience and Biophysics – Medicine we are
> seeking
>
> 2 Ph.D. Students for three-year projects
> Theme: Multimodal cortical system analysis
>
>
> The Institute for Neuroscience and Biophysics – Medicine at the
> Research Center Jülich provides an excellent multi-disciplinary and
> interactive research environment close to the culturally vibrant
> cities of Aachen, Düsseldorf and Köln. Within the institute we
> combine expertise in neuroimaging (research-dedicated 1.5T/3T/4T MRI
> systems, high-field ani-mal MR, PET, combined human PET – 3 T MR
> system), neuroscience and clinical research with state-of-the-art
> laboratories for histological and neurochemical analysis such as
> receptor autoradiography.

>
> The research focus of the “Cortial Systems and Neurotransmitter
> Receptors” group (Head: Prof. Dr. Karl Zilles) lies in the
> multimodal integration of anatomical and func-tional data in order
> to gain insight into the mechanisms underlying brain function and
> dysfunction. In particular we are striving to combine information on
> the cortical anatomy with functional neuroimaging, models of
> effective connectivity and pharmacological approaches to investigate
> visual feature processing and cortical motor control.
>
> We are now looking for two PhD students with a strong interest in
> this multidisciplinary research. A background in neuroanatomy and/or
> fMRI analysis techniques (SPM, FSL, MATLAB etc) would be of
> advantage, readiness to learn new methods a necessary requirement.
> Applicants should have a degree in Neuroscience, Psychology,
> Medicine, Informatics, Biology or related areas.
>
>
> Payment will correspond to salary grade 13/2 Collective Agreement
> for the Civil Service (TVöD). Equal opportunities is an important
> cornerstone of our staff policy at Research Centre Jülich, for which
> we have been awarded the „TOTAL E-QUALITY“ award. Applications from
> women are therefore particularly welcome. Applications from disabled
> persons are welcomed.
