machines as part of world’s largest Sleep Center, TMS, neurophysiology
bioninstrumentation at HERI as well as state-of the-art 3T MRI and PET
systems in Radiology, WIMR and at the Keck Lab for humans.
The fellow will work as part of a multidisciplinary team of Psychologists,
Neuroscientists, Neurologists, Psychiatrists, Neuroradiologists, Engineers &
Medical Physicists integrating findings from a broad spectrum of approaches
including:
- resting state functional MRI
- task-based functional MRI
- DTI, MRS, Perfusion imaging, HYPR-VIPR MRA
- Cortical Thinning, VBM
- Brain-Computer Interface
- Multimodal approach: Awake EEG/ERP and Sleep EEG, PET, TMS
Minimum qualifications for a successful candidate include
- completed MD and/or MS or PhD in Cognitive
neuroscience/psychology, Statistics, Computer Science, Engineering, or
Medical Physics or other equivalent background
- significant prior neuroimaging experience with functional MRI/EEG/TMS,
strong skills in usage of one or more common functional neuroimaging (FSL,
SPM, AFNI), programming experience in Matlab, C/C++ or similar platform are
