The below advert is for a Post doc position that starts in London and moves to Cardiff. There will also be a position starting in Cardiff in April 2006. Both will involve fMRI at the new CUBRIC facility in Cardiff. If you could forward this to anyone who might be interested, or post the advert up anywhere, I would be very grateful. Thanks, Petroc Research Associate in Cognitive Neuroscience Department of Visual Neuroscience, Imperial College London and School of Psychology, Cardiff University Salary: £22,116 - £32,232 per annum (Starting salary up to £27,381) We are seeking a Research Associate to work in Cognitive Neuroscience. The post is for up to one year at the Department of Visual Neuroscience within the Division of Neuroscience and Mental Health based at the Charing Cross Campus, Imperial College London. The post is renewable for two further years at the School of Psychology, Cardiff University. This is an exciting opportunity to join a dynamic team studying vision and visually guided behaviour. This project, funded by the BBSRC, is specifically concerned with the interaction of cortical and subcortical pathways. Studies will include fMRI imaging, novel behavioural paradigms and psychophysics with both healthy volunteers and patients with focal brain lesions. Thus the post offers the opportunity to gain experience in a wide range of methodology. Importantly, you will be expected to fully contribute to designing new paradigms and shaping the future directions of this research. You should have a PhD in a relevant discipline (e.g. Psychology or Cognitive Neuroscience), along with previous experience in one of the following areas: fMRI imaging, experimental psychology, psychophysics. Most important is the ability to learn new techniques and contribute to developing novel experiments. Experience of programming and knowledge of statistical methods would be an advantage.
