Hello All,
A postdoctoral position with FAPESP scholarship is available to work on a research project within the scope of BRAINN, the Brazilian Research Institute for Neuroscience and Neurotechnology – one of the Research, Innovation and Dissemination Centers (RIDCs) supported by the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP). BRAINN is hosted by the School of Medical Sciences of University of Campinas (FCM-UNICAMP), São Paulo state, Brazil.
Conducted at the Department of Neurology of FCM-UNICAMP under the coordination of Prof. Marcondes França, the project aims to implement a novel MRI protocol and to create a post-processing methodology (involving artificial intelligence) for evaluating the morphology of the cerebellum and its nuclei using structural brain MRI. The results will help to identify useful biomarkers for therapeutic clinical trials for cerebellar diseases.
The candidate must present:
- Training in Physics, Biomedical Engineering, Medicine, or Neuroscience;
- PhD with experience in research on the themes relevant to the project;
- Advanced knowledge in neuroimaging (structural RM) and toolboxes (SPM, FSL, etc.);
- Experience in image processing and statistics;
- Relevant publications;
- Independence for research;
- Experience in volumetric analysis and diffusion tensor images (DTI) is a positive point.
This opportunity is open to candidates of any nationalities. The selected candidate will receive a FAPESP’s Post-Doctoral fellowship in the amount of R$ 7,373.10 monthly and a research contingency fund, equivalent to 10% of the annual value of the fellowship which should be spent in items directly related to the research activity.
