One Postdoc and two PhD Positions are available at the Section of
Neuroimaging, Marburg. Our research group is located within the Department of
Psychiatry and focuses on MR-neuroimaging in cognitive psychiatry. Some of our
current projects address methodological developments, others investigate the
neurocognitive correlates of various psychiatric disorders (schizophrenia,
autism, depression etc.).
Project description:
The work of the successful candidates will include the performance of
experiments in the field of social-cognitive and affective neuroscience using
fMRI, the analysis of effective connectivity between brain regions by Dynamic
Causal Modelling and analysis of structural MR images (e.g., DTI data,
hippocampus volumetry). Some projects are embedded in a German-wide
multicenter project investigating therapy effects in patients with
schizophrenia and panic disorder, respectively.
Requirements:
We are looking for highly motivated candidates with a strong interest in
multidisciplinary research. Applicants should have a degree in Neuroscience,
Psychology, Medicine, Physics, Informatics, Biology or related areas. A
background in fMRI analyses techniques (SPM, FSL, MATLAB etc), statistics or
clinical neuropsychology would be of advantage.
The position is available immediately and search will continue until a
candidate has been selected. Applications (including CV and publication list)
should be sent to Sören Krach ([log in to unmask]) or Andreas Jansen
([log in to unmask])
