The program uses neuroimaging to investigate central mu-opioid mechanisms of chronic TMD pain. Knowledge of Linux/UNIX operating systems as well as programming experience is required, as is a good level of comfort with novel computer applications and statistics. Previous research experience with positron emission tomography and/or MRI-based neuroimaging methods and analyses is also needed. We are seeking applicants with strong self-motivation to work in a highly creative, altruistic, and mentoring environment. The applicant will be exposed to other tech-innovations in chronic pain (e.g., migraine, dental and cancer pain), such as: *Neuroimaging/Neuronavigation:* http://www.ns.umich.edu/new/multimedia/videos/21402-hologram-like-3d-brain-… *Neuromodulation:*** http://www.jove.com/video/2744/electrode-positioning-montage-transcranial-d… *Mobile Technology:* http://www.ns.umich.edu/new/multimedia/videos/20960-new-mobile-app-helps-mi… H.O.P.E. is a multidisciplinary collaborative effort at University of Michigan to investigate the brain as a research and therapeutic target for headaches and orofacial pain disorders. The University of Michigan is an equal opportunity affirmative action employer. Initially a curriculum vitae and letter of intent should be sent to: Alexandre F. M.
