Computational Cognitive Affective Neuroscience Laboratory <https://cocoanlab.github.io> (director: Dr. Choong-Wan Woo) is seeking a postdoctoral fellow beginning March 2017 (but specific start date can be flexible). We investigate how the brain represents, processes, and regulates pain and emotions. Particularly, our research focuses on the development of clinically useful neuroimaging biomarkers and tools using machine learning and computational modeling approaches. Our lab is a part of the Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) <http://cnir.ibs.re.kr/html/cnir_en/> at Institute for Basic Science (IBS) <https://www.ibs.re.kr/eng.do>, which is a government-funded research institute (meaning we have a stable funding). Our lab has a full access to the CNIR’s brand-new neuroimaging facilities and equipments <http://cnir.ibs.re.kr/_prog/equipments/?&site_dvs_cd=cnir_en&menu_dvs_cd=050101> for conducting cutting-edge research. The facilities include animal and human MRIs (3T, 9.4T, 15.2T) and optical imaging tools, high performance computing clusters, electronic and machine shop. etc. We also have facilities for rodents and non-human primates, meaning we will be able to do some cross-species brain mapping. Compensation will be competitive and commensurate with experience (comparable to NIH). If you're interested in our lab, please visit our lab website: http://cocoanlab.github.io, and take a detailed look at our job ad <https://cocoanlab.github.io/jobs/#postdoc> to know the job requirements and benefits. If you'd like to apply, please email Dr. Choong-Wan Woo ( [log in to unmask]) with your CV and brief statement explaining your research interests as well as specific interests in joining our lab. Thanks!! Wani (Choong-Wan)
