This postdoctoral position is to work in Dr Graham Murray's group
investigating the biology of reward processing in psychiatric and
neurological disorders. The post holder will use functional MRI,
behavioural testing, and other cognitive neuroscience techniques to
investigate the brain basis of various mental symptoms (anhedonia,
apathy, psychosis) in conditions such as depression, psychotic illness
and Parkinson's Disease. For details on the group please see

The post holder will have: experience of functional MRI research;
excellent social and writing skills and the ability to work
independently; publication(s) in peer-reviewed academic journals and
excellent organisational skills. Experience in psychological testing
and/or computer programming is an advantage.
The post will be appointed at the appropriate point on the University of
Cambridge's research associate salary scale. Candidates should have a
PhD or equivalent in a biological or computational science.
Informal enquiries should be directed to Dr Graham Murray gm285(a)cam.ac.uk
Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 12 months in the

The research group "Systems Neuroscience in Psychiatry"at the Central
Institute of Mental Health in Mannheim (Germany)offers *1 PhD-student
position *in the field of functional neuroimaging in health and disease.
Special focus is set on multimodal network characterization using fMRI,
preferentially in combination with other techniques (e.g., structural
MRI, EEG, TMS), during both challenge (e.g. behavioural task,
pharmacological agent) and non-challenge (e.g. resting state) conditions.
The successful applicant will join a multidisciplinary team trained in
medicine, psychology, biology, and/or applied natural sciences. Our
expertise includes the application of multimodal magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) methods in healthy individuals and psychiatric patient
populations, the combination of MRI methods with other neuroscience
techniques (e.g., rTMS, EEG), the identification and characterization of
environmental, genetic and epigenetic factors underlying functional
network dynamics, and the investigation of these diagnostic markers for
prognosis and therapy. For further information, see
http://www.zi-mannheim.de/en/research/departments/psychiatrie/arbeitsgruppe….
The position is available from *October 2013* onwards for initially 2
years and includes an option for extension. Applications are considered

Dear Colleagues,
We are currently advertising a 3-year postdoctoral position in Developmental and Clinical Neuroscience at the University of Birmingham.
The role would involve collecting and analysing functional and structural MRI data from typically-developing adolescents and adolescents with severe antisocial behaviour, as part of a FP7 Health project investigating sex differences in antisocial behaviour. We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates with skills in fMRI and functional connectivity analysis, and experience working with developmental populations.
For further details about the project, the role, and the application process, please see below:

Dear colleagues
We are currently advertising a 3-year PhD studentship to carry out a PhD in Developmental Psychopathology and Brain Imaging at the University of Birmingham (deadline is Monday 26th August, 5pm UK time).

Dear NeuroImager,
Please find [1]here a summary of a post-doctoral project related to the
Strategic Human Brain Data subproject of the [2]Human Brain Project.
Ideally, the successful candidate should start the post-doc on end
2013/early 2014.
The research focus of this proposal is to build a functional atlas of the
human brain: by repeatedly scanning a limited number of subjects with a
large class of functional localizers (retinotopic, tonotopic, somatotopic,
visual categories, space and number, language, social cognition, resting
state) together with high-resolution anatomy and diffusion-weighted scans,
we wish to accumulate spatially resolved functional information on this
group of subjects. The resulting activation maps will provide an objective
basis to inform the definition of brain regions, and compared to similar
resources (human connectome project etc.). The uniqueness of the dataset
will consist in the variety of cognitive functions tested.
The post-doc will be in charge of setting a set of protocols up and
running, take part to the set of acquisitions performed on Neuropsin 3T
scanner at high resolution, analyse it with the help of the engineers and
researchers of the Parietal team. He/she will be involved in the design
choices for the initial steps of the project and in the ensuing
meta-analyses and performance. The work will be carried out at Neurospin,
Saclay, France, in close collaboration with the [3]unicog team.
We offer a salary of 32 kE/year. The position is for two years. For more
details, please contact [4]Bertrand Thirion.
Please do circulate this announcement. Thank you in advance for your help.
Best,
Gael, relaying Bertrand Thirion
