Institute for Pediatric Neuroscience, NYU Child Study Center, NYU
 School
 of Medicine

The Institute for Pediatric Neuroscience is currently recruiting a
 post-doctoral
 fellow
interested in identifying and/or characterizing abnormalities
 in
 the
 neural substrates of

cocaine) and psychiatric disorders that increase their risk (e.g., ADHD).

 The fellow will
work as part of a multidisciplinary team, integrating
 the
 findings of a broad spectrum of
approaches including:

- resting state functional MRI

- task-based functional MRI

- diffusion tensor imaging

- voxel-based morphometry

- cortical thickness
Qualifications: The minimum qualifications for a successful candidate include:

- completed PhD in cognitive neuroscience, cognitive psychology, neuroscience, or related
fields

- significant prior neuroimaging experience with functional MRI
 (prior
 experience with
EEG is a plus, but not required)

- strong skills in usage of one or more common functional neuroimaging
 (FSL, SPM,
AFNI) packages

Programming experience in Matlab, C/C++ or similar platform is a plus


Anticipated start date: summer, 2009.
