The Structured Information for Precision Neuroengineering (SIPLab)<https://siplab.gatech.edu/> at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Atlanta, GA) is hiring a postdoctoal fellow to work with Drs. Christopher Rozell and Sankar Alagapan. We are seeking a postdoc with a background in human neuroscience who has finished (or is about to finish) a doctoral degree in Psychology, Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering, or related areas. The ideal candidate will have experience in conducting human subject studies with neural data acquisition (e.g., EEG, MEG, intracranial EEG, fMRI) and be proficient in analytical approaches for neural data analysis (e.g., artifact removal, time-frequency analysis, functional connectivity, etc.). Experience in cognitive neuroscience, brain stimulation, mobile EEG, other physiological data streams, or advanced machine learning approaches (e.g., dynamical systems modeling, deep learning) will be considered a plus.
We are looking for a highly motivated and creative individual who enjoys working in an exciting interdisciplinary research environment. This role will build on our recent advances<https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06541-3> in neurotechnology therapies for treatment resistant depression to further understand the circuit basis (and potential therapeutic approaches) for psychiatric disorders. In particular, this position will contribute to ongoing efforts<https://reporter.nih.gov/search/CNg6B0FeU0yAGojyUQpnYw/project-details/11046239> in studying brain-body relationships underlying effortful behavior in healthy individuals, individuals with depression, and individuals undergoing intracranial monitoring for epilepsy surgery planning. Training will include advanced machine learning approaches, brain stimulation, multimodal data acquisition, and analysis. The lab is committed to the professional development of the members, making it valuable preparation for people who are interested in academic, industrial or entrepreneurial careers. The position has no mandatory teaching or administrative duties, but the successful candidate will take an active role in mentoring students and further developing the research program. Excellent (written and oral) communication skills in English are required. The start date is flexible but ideally would be as soon as possible. The position is initially for 12 months with the possibility of renewal. Compensation will be commensurate with relevant experience and NIH standard scales. Georgia Tech has competitive benefits (including comprehensive medical insurance) and is an equal opportunity employer. Georgia Tech is a vibrant intellectual community, including the recently launched Institute for Neuroscience, Neurotechnology & Society<https://neuro.gatech.edu/>. The campus is in the heart of midtown Atlanta, which is one of the fastest-growing metropolitan areas (and entrepreneurial communities) in the United States. Outside of work, Atlanta boasts a wide range of opportunities for recreation, culture, and easy access to domestic and international transportation. Candidates should send a CV, a statement of research experience and interests, expected date of availability, and the contact information for three references to Drs. Rozell (crozell -at- gatech -dot- edu) and Alagapan (sankar.alagapan -at- gatech.edu) with the subject line "SIPLab postdoc application". Applications are currently being reviewed and will continue until the position is filled. -- Systems Neuroscience mailing list: www.systemsneuroscience.eu To post, send email to [email protected] --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Systems Neuroscience" group.
