A postdoctoral fellowship position is currently available in Dr. Calhoun's
laboratory (see http://mialab.mrn.org) at The Mind Research Network (MRN)
and the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University
of New Mexico in Albuquerque. The MRN houses a dedicated Siemens TIM Trio 3T
MRI scanner and two 1.5T MRI scanners in addition to MEG, EEG, and a
genetics lab. This position will focus on the development and application of
signal processing techniques and software for functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI) data of psychiatric patients. Of particular focus will be
developing algorithms based upon the incorporation of prior information
within a source separation framework (independent component analysis,
canonical correlation analysis, etc). The ideal candidate will have
experience with image/signal processing, will be eager to learn about fMRI,
and is looking for an opportunity in a richly interdisciplinary research
center. In addition to working on ongoing projects it is expected that the
individual will pursue his/her own research interests. Our ideal candidate
will have a Ph.D. in engineering, mathematics, statistics, or related field.
Prior expertise in fMRI preferred, but not required.

"An author [or researcher] should never conceive
himself as bringing into existence beauty or
wisdom which did not exist before, but simply
and solely as trying to embody in terms of his
own art some reflection of eternal Beauty and
Wisdom...And always, of every idea and of every
method the Christian will ask not, 'Is it mine?'
but 'Is it good?'"
