We are pleased to offer a 2-year post-doctoral position at the Reina
Sofia Foundation Alzheimer's Disease Centre in Madrid, Spain.
The successful applicant will be involved in neuroimaging analyses of a
5-year longitudinal study (currently in year 4) of 1200 healthy elderly
individuals (aged 70-85) to determine neuronal markers in the healthy
state which predict subsequent development of mild cognitive impairment
and dementia.
In addition, the Reina Sofia Alzheimer's Centre offers:
- A research-dedicated MRI facility attached to a 140-bed residence for
patients with Alzheimer’s disease.
- A brain-bank providing post-mortem histopathological confirmation of
dementia diagnosis for patients scanned pre-mortem.
- Ex-vivo MRI scanning.
A strong background in neuroimaging techniques is required. Applicants
must have a PhD in neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, biomedical
engineering, neuropsychology or related field. Experience in dementia
research is a plus. Spanish language skills are NOT required.
Competitive annual salary depending on experience.
