Dear SPMers,
We are currently recruiting 4 Phd & 4 Master students for the SCAN LAB.
The SCAN LAB (Social Cognition & Affective Neuroscience) at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) in Chengdu explores the neurobiological basis of human emotion in healthy subjects and humans with mental disorders. Combining advanced behavioral, pharmacological and neuroimaging approaches we aim to improve mental health and develop innovate treatment strategies, including neurohormones such as Oxytocin, real-time fMRI Neurofeedback, brain compensation training and non-invasive brain stimulation (rTMS).
The projects will be supervised by Keith Kendrick & Ben Becker – for our previous research please see:
https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Keith_Kendrick/publications
https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Benjamin_Becker3/publications
Lab language is English – for some studies & interaction with patients Chinese will be an obvious advantage;) A strong experimental (neuroscience, psychology) or bio-mathematical (biomedical engineering, software engineering, etc) background is a definite advantage. As well as previous experience with the techniques (rTMS, including neuro-navigated rTMS, Psychophysiology, functional MRI, real-time fMRI neurofeedback, EEG, Psychophysiology) & the tools of trade (SPM, turbo BV, connectivity tools, matlab, presentation, e-prime).
Planned start of the position will be end of 2015/beginning of 2016. Please send your CV, publication list & a short letter of motivation as a single pdf file to:
[log in to unmask] (please CC the mail to: [log in to unmask] & [log in to unmask])
For organizational questions please contact our lab manager (zhao weihua / Zara [log in to unmask])
Looking forward to your application!
