Drs. Maurizio Corbetta and Michel Thiebaut de Schotten have an opening for a 1-year post-doctoral position at the ICM (Institute of Brain & Spine, Sorbonne University, Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, Paris, http://icm-institute.org/en/) beginning September 1, 2017.

The candidate will be involved in experiments aimed at understanding the relationship between structural and functional connectivity measured with MRI both in the healthy brain and patients with focal stroke.  The goal is to clarify how structural network alterations support functional network abnormalities, and how either type of connectivity changes relate to behavioral impairment and recovery of function.  The project will involve mainly analysis of data that have been already collected as part of Dr. Corbetta ongoing grants with the National Institute of Health, as well as the opportunity to design and run a new experiment. The candidate will be expected to have a background in functional/structural neuroimaging, and be conversant with computer/script programming in Matlab or other languages. Applicants should have a Ph.D., which need not be restricted to neuroscience. Individuals with appropriate experience and degrees in engineering, computer science, physics, mathematics and related fields will also be considered. Applicants should send a statement of interest, a CV, and a list of three potential referees to Michel Thiebaut de Schotten, Ph.D. ([log in to unmask])
