The Dynamic Memory Lab (C. Ranganath, PI) at the University of California at Davis is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a project investigating the relationship between neural oscillations and episodic memory retrieval. The project will involve EEG, fMRI, and transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) studies. The lab is located at the UC Davis Center for Neuroscience, which houses a 3T Siemens Skyra MRI scanner, an MR-compatible tDCS/tACS system, and EEG systems both at the lab and in-scanner. Start date is flexible and can be delayed to accommodate defense and publication of thesis work. Salary is based on NIH payscale.
Qualifications: Candidates must have completed a Ph.D. in Psychology, Neuroscience, or a related field and have first-authored publications that reflect familiarity with neuroscience techniques (e.g., EEG, fMRI, tDCS/tACS, TMS, etc.). Strong preference will be given to candidates with research background in learning and memory and expertise in time-frequency analysis, cortical source estimation, and/or multivariate decoding of EEG or MEG in humans or corresponding LFP analyses in animal models. Expertise with fMRI, particularly multivariate pattern classification and pattern similarity analysis, is also a plus. Resourcefulness, resilience, productivity, integrity, and ability to get along with others are essential.
