Subject: [Freesurfer] Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Martinos Center

We believe this posting may be of interest for some members of the group:


Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging and the 
Psychiatric Neuroimaging.
Division of the Psychiatry Department at Massachusetts General Hospital, 
Charlestown, MA.
Project: Multimodal neuroimaging studies of sleep and memory
PI: Dara S. Manoach, Ph.D.


The position will involve investigating the role of sleep in memory 
consolidation, how these processes go awry in schizophrenia and autism, and the 
efficacy of pharmacological and other interventions. Our work has linked 
cognitive deficits to a specific heritable mechanism (sleep spindles) and we 
are seeking effective interventions. In collaboration with Dr. Robert 
Stickgold’s lab at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, we are extending and 
expanding this basic and clinical research program using state-of-the art tools 
including high density EEG (polysomnography), MEG, DTI, functional connectivity 
MRI, fMRI, and behavioral studies. We are seeking someone to participate in 
these foundation and NIMH-funded investigations who is familiar with MEG/EEG 
methodology and data analysis, comfortable with methodological innovation, and 
is interested in optimizing and developing analysis streams tailored to the 
study aims and populations. New approaches and ideas are encouraged, as are 
independent projects that dovetail with current studies. The position requires 
working closely with the PI, as well as with Dr. Stickgold, other Martinos 
Center investigators, particularly Dr. Matti Hamalainen, Director of the MEG 
Core Lab, and lab mates to design studies, acquire data, and develop, explore, 
improve and apply data analytic techniques. Training in clinical research and 
in the acquisition, analysis, and interpretation of neuroimaging data will be 
provided.

Requirements: PhD or MD Experience with MEG/EEG data analysis/methodology 
and/or other signal processing. Background in cognitive neuroscience, 
experimental psychology, and an interest in clinical applications are a plus.

Position available immediately. Interested applicants should email: (a) CV, (b) 
statement of post-doctoral and career goals, (c) writing sample (e.g., a 
published manuscript), and (d) letters and/or contact information for three 
references to Dara Manoach 
dara.mano...@mgh.harvard.edu
Stipend levels are in line with experience and NIH. A two-year commitment is 
required.



Best,

*APPLICATION DEADLINE 28 NOVEMBER 2011*

Postdoctoral Fellowship Opportunity in the Cognitive Neurology and
Alzheimer’s Disease Center at Northwestern University Feinberg School of
Medicine. The trainee will work with Drs. Emily Rogalski and Marsel Mesulam
on studies of language processing in primary progressive aphasia and
investigations of healthy brain aging.  Studies are focused on delineating
language deficits associated with the progression of neurodegenerative
disease as marked by structural and functional neuroimaging as well as
event-related potentials.  There is also an opportunity to investigate
concomitants of healthy brain aging in advanced old age. The training
position is competitive and supported by the Mechanisms of Aging and
Dementia Training Grant.  Applicants should have a PhD degree from an
accredited university in cognitive aging, neuropsychology, cognitive
neuroscience, or related field with experience in structural neuroimaging.
*Applicant must be US citizen or permanent resident*.  Experience with PET
imaging is also desirable. Start date is negotiable but opportunity is
available as early as December 1, 2011.  Applicants should submit letters
of interest, a CV, and three letters of recommendation to Kristine
Zachrich, Northwestern Cognitive Neurology and Alzheimer’s Disease Center,
