Emission Tomography. The Centre was expanded in 2011 to include a new
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) suite and now houses a PET scanner
facility, a MRI scanner suite and a fully equipped radiochemistry.
Applicants should have recently received a masters degree in a specialty
related to neuroscience and has experience in neuroimaging and
interacting with clinical population. The successful candidate will
assist in clinical assessments and analyse PET and MRI images. Preferred
candidates will have significant experience in multimodal imaging
modalities namely PET, structural and functional MRI.
Applicants may submit an electronic copy of their CV along with a cover
letter describing their research experience and interests addressed to:

The collaborative research center DFG-SFB-TR58 “Fear, Anxiety, Anxiety
Disorders” (Münster, Würzburg, Hamburg) is opening a 3.5-year position
for a PhD student (E13, starting January or later) to work on the
genetic and neural mechanisms of context conditioning and extinction.
The project will be conducted at the Institute for Systems Neuroscience
at University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (supervisors: C. Büchel,
R. Kalisch) in close collaboration with the Unit for Molecular
Psychiatry in Würzburg (supervisor: A. Reif). Methods used are fMRI,
psychophysiology, behavioral and personality testing, and genetics.
The position offers a great opportunity to work in a young, dynamic
research team within one of Germany’s top systems neuroscience sites and
to integrate into the German fear and anxiety research community. The
SFB and local graduate programs offer attractive interdisciplinary
training curricula.
Applicants should have a graduation in neuroscience, cognitive science,
psychology, biology or related subjects.
For further information, please contact Raffael Kalisch (rkalisch(a)uke.de

The Institute for Stroke and Dementia Research (ISD) is looking for a
Research Fellow/Postdoc:
Functional MRI& EEG Neuroimaging in Dementia
RESEARCH FOCUS and RESPONSIBILITIES:
The research fellow/postdoc will work on multimodal imaging of human brain changes in early stages of Alzheimer’s disease and cerebrovascular disease. The funded research project has a strong focus on the combined acquisition of functional MRI and high-density EEG along with other neuroimaging modalities. The establishment of the fMRI-EEG task-related paradigm and statistical analysis will be a key part of the responsibilities of research position. The fellow will work in a dynamically growing neuroimaging team and is encouraged to bring in own research ideas.
REQUIREMENTS:
Research experience in EEG and fMRI of brain changes is strongly encouraged. An independent work style and solid knowledge of programming and statistics is a plus. Familiarity with biological or clinical aspects of Alzheimer’s disease is not a prerequisite.
An enthusiastic, reliable and independent work style will provide a good fit for our team.
OFFER:
Our institute offers an excellent multidisciplinary environment and state-of-the-art multimodal neuroimaging equipment (3T MRI, high-density fMRI compatible EEG, molecular PET). The research fellow will have clearly defined task definitions, access to all data sets of the research project, and advanced technical support to facilitate efficient work conditions. The fellow will work in a friendly, dynamic, and highly productive team, headed by Prof. Michael Ewers, PhD.
