FULL-TIME POSTDOCTORAL FELLOW: We are seeking a full-time postdoctoral researcher experienced in the analysis of structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging data to work on several newly funded NIH studies examining neurobiological markers of major mood disorders and their treatments in children, adolescents, and young adults. Activities will include conducting neuroimaging scans in children and adolescents, processing cognitive and neuroimaging data, cleaning and quality control, and leading a neuroimaging team in collaborative data analyses. Applicants should have a Ph.D. or equivalent in clinical, cognitive, or computational neuroscience, psychology, computer science, biomedical engineering, statistics, or a related field. The fellow should have strong programming (i.e., MATLAB) and writing skills, experience in neuroimaging or a related field, and a strong interest in pursuing an academic career path. Preference will be given to applicants who have experience with multiple analysis methods/toolkits in the relevant modality, a publication track record of analyzing data from multiple brain imaging modalities (e.g. both structural and functional imaging), experience analyzing reward paradigms or conducting research in mood or other developmental disorders.
The postdoctoral fellow will engage in analyzing and integrating multimodal clinical, cognitive, and neuroimaging data of children, adolescents, and young adults. The fellow will be responsible for leading new and existing analysis pipelines for functional and/or anatomical MRI in collaboration with faculty and support staff, for assessment and mitigation of artifacts, and for continuing analysis of our existing database of multimodal MRI data. The fellow will also assist in supervision/training of graduate or undergraduate students and research assistants and in the preparation of manuscripts for publication. Finally, the postdoctoral fellow will assist with the preparation of progress reports and future grant submissions. Work will be carried out with a team of interdisciplinary investigators at Stanford University, led by PI Manpreet Singh, MD. Stanford is an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
