Job Description
The post-doctoral fellow in this position will lead two research projects: (1) evaluation of a device-independent real-time imaging software we have been developing for our unique pediatric whole-head MEG system (babyMEG, Okada et al 2016); and (2) evaluation
of a new whole-head pediatric MEG system (conformal MEG or CMEG) that is based on optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) instead of the SQUID sensors used in the babyMEG. The fellow is expected to evaluate the software on the EEG machines that are being used
in the Epilepsy Division, Dept. Neurology, of Boston Children’s Hospital, and on the babyMEG. The fellow is also expected to evaluate and compare the babyMEG with the CMEG in healthy children and children with epilepsy. The fellow will work with the Director
of the BCH MEG Program who is responsible for both projects, an Instructor who is the manager of the MEG program, a faculty member who works with the EEG team and two RAs who are at the BCH, a team at Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, MGH, which has
been developing the device-independent software (MNE-CE) and a team at the Univ. Colorado Boulder which has developed the CMEG.
