The AABC is a longitudinal extension of the Human Connectome Project in Aging that seeks to determine the structural and functional brain connectivity trajectories associated with vulnerability and resilience to developing late life dementia. Among the IDASC’s primary aims is to continue the Human Connectome Project (HCP)’s<https://secure-web.cisco.com/1TJ34rCWxWlzejI-JhfFwndMEDUQ2t4IHs7v-4AbXCZ2U3uPkhdrKmkxx7hgAdEuV-BXSsSNWT4pHg7Po9tYbElSRdbGjkiySiNhQ2h3QtTLBqyuIOmCxbxxEtHhCN9EK-67yUP65qFdZYEcGvuv0yvghxiWWLSYih5Z2ImlGaPvPXIb3OwdRFJSoNIyN4MtFewxQM8eA54tOuwx0ZJ07DwhUw_oJroOFNf21wG8qjVs0q6CN6_2LT2QUrbgQtkWWO1Zxtl4eX12_gsUqwLl6lWGkie0bza3l7Km5n1VPDUfmo3mOIE-UlrQy8bE8W9oS1WNXj6zasHq24eJDRGxZSw/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.humanconnectome.org%2F> innovative neuroimaging methods development, with a particular focus on HCP-Style data analysis optimized for generating multi-modal imaging data phenotypes from longitudinally acquired scans. The selected candidate will have access to the HCP’s large consortium of world experts in multiple neuroimaging domains and ample opportunities to publish research methods and scientific findings in high impact academic journals and at premier scientific conferences. The Van Essen/Glasser lab’s senior staff are highly experienced, having developed much of the HCP’s software themselves, and are excellent at training new users of HCP-Style brain imaging methods. The CIRC hosts a vibrant community of postdoctoral and graduate student trainees together with multiple additional faculty and state of the art computational resources. The position is renewable annually based on performance, and funding is available for up to 4 years.
