A two-year postdoctoral internship in structural and functional neuroimaging is available
immediately at the University of California, San Diego, Autism Center of Excellence (ACE),
directed by Dr. Eric Courchesne. Characteristics of an ideal candidate include a technically
savvy individual with expertise in a range of neuroimaging software tools such as AFNI,
FSL, or SPM. One of the goals of the UCSD ACE is to discover a unique neuroanatomic or
neurofunctional profile of babies at-risk for autism ranging in age from 12-42 months. The
successful candidate will take a leading role in implementing and analyzing an extensive
brain-imaging protocol that includes perfusion, diffusion tensor, structural and functional
imaging. Prior brain imaging experience required. Computer programming expertise
preferred, but not required. No autism experience required.
