Fwd:Postdoc position in Neuroanatomy and Connectivity Lab, Max Planck Institute

by Gary Green

fyi -------------------------------- from krzysztof.gorgolewski(a)gmail.com One of the most exciting labs I know is looking for a postdoc. I've been working there for two years and I have to say it's a really inspiring and diverse place. See the details below: "We are currently inviting applications for aÂ postdoctoralÂ research position in the Max Planck Research Group for Neuroanatomy & Connectivity. Our research investigates the organization of connectivity in the human cerebral cortex using MRI. The research projects will address the topological structure of cortical connectivity patterns and their relationship to underlying cortical morphology. Specific topics may range from graph theoretical approaches and describing network structure to cortical developmental modeling and addressing data visualization challenges. The duration of the position is flexible, beginning with an initial period of two years. Candidates should have a PhD (or equivalent) in neuroscience, computer science, or a related discipline, with a strong background in data analysis and programming. Previous experience in neuroscience and working with brain imaging data is an advantage, but not a requirement. Applicants should nonetheless have an outstanding scientific track record with clear evidence of leadership and scholarly output in the form of publications and other achievements. The position is primarily devoted to research, with no formal teaching requirements, but ample opportunity to mentor graduate students. The Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences offers a collaborative, international research environment with English being the language spoken in the lab. The Institute has a state-of-the-art research infrastructure, including several 3T scanners and one 7T MRI scanner, TMS/tDCS, EEG, MEG, etc, and substantial computing resources. Applicants are requested to provide a cover letter describing their qualifications and research interests, a curriculum vitae, and the contact information of at least two personal references. This should be sent as a single PDF file toÂ personal(a)cbs.mpg.de <mailto:personal@cbs.mpg.de>Â with the subject heading âPD NC 14â. Please submit applications byÂ September 15th, 2014. Starting date for the position is flexible, but ideally in the autumn of 2014. Salary is dependent on experience and based on standard post-doctoral MPI stipends. The Max Planck Society is an equal opportunity employer, and international applicants are encouraged to apply.
