Hi all, Our lab is preparing to post a job up for a research programmer / sysadmin / scientific support person (my job, actually) in the coming weeks, but I wanted to advertise it informally here first because I think it's a really great fit for SWC folk.
The lab is the Translational Imaging-Genetics Research lab[0] at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in downtown Toronto. We are an academic hospital affiliated with the University of Toronto and we work with genetics, and structural and functional brain imaging (mostly MRI, some EEG) of humans to understand mental illness and healthy aging. The lab is a diverse mix of students/fellows/staff from a range of disciplines (neuroscience, psychology, bio, CS, engineering, etc..). We have lots of data and compute power, and are always developing new methods, which is where you come in. We are looking for someone who is motivated, and experienced as a software developer (Python, R, Shell primarily), and who has experience also as a system administrator for our linux-based servers, workstations, compute clusters and software base. The candidate will be working mostly in a support capacity, as you will be teaching and working others (often with limited computational background) to design and implement their analyses[1]. You will also be able to do your own research if that's something you're interested in. Some MR imaging experience would be very helpful, but not necessary; also at least a MSc would be preferred (although again, not totally necessary). Start date would be July/August 2016. If you're interested, please shoot me an email and tell me about yourself, and ask me anything about the job. Thanks, Jon.
