The successful candidate will work with Prof. Julie Grèzes, Ph.D. For information on the group visit: http://www.iec-lnc.ens.fr/social-cognition-group/ The overall aim of the project is to investigate the relationship between attention and action selection processes in response to social threat, and the impact of anxiety on such link. In brief, anxiety is both an adaptive response when manifest in moderation and an impairing condition at exceeding levels. The standard view of anxiety emphasizes that it leads to a hypervigilance to threat. The present project builds on a novel finding obtained in our team demonstrating that non-clinical anxiety does not merely lead to increased attention to threat, but rather shifts the neural coding of threat to motor circuits (El Zein et al. 2015 Elife). The project aims to investigate the behavioral consequences of such threat-related motor coding and to address whether the maladaptive inhibitory function of anxiety observed during attention selection generalizes to action selection. A comprehensive view of the impact of adaptive anxiety on attention and action selection processes in response to threat will be obtained by combining behavioral with physiological (movement kinematics, pupillometry) and neural measures (EEG under fMRI, MEG). What we expect from you · A PhD degree or equivalent in a field related to cognitive neuroscience (experimental psychology, cognitive science, electrophysiology), · Solid background on either social cognitive/emotion neuroscience or attention/action neuroscience, · Strong experience with experimental work and analyses of EEG and/or MEG data, · Expertise in Matlab and in statistics, · Evidence of published peer-reviewed research, · Excellent skills in written and spoken English, · Strong motivation.

A fundamental challenge in achieving this goal is bridging knowledge gaps impeded by the difficulty in integrating experimental measurements across different scales. Our lab studies the relationship between local circuits and long-range networks in the mammalian neocortex. We take an integrative approach by combining large-scale in vivo imaging technology with molecular and genetic tools in the awake-behaving animal. RESEARCH PROJECTS: Principles of Long-Range Cortical Communication. We are investigating how behavior-relevant information is processed both locally and globally throughout the neocortex. Using the mouse tactile whisker sensorimotor system as a model for studying long-range cortical communication during sensory processing and decision making, we seek to understand the following questions: - What are the circuits underlying long-range cortical communication? - What are the physiological mechanisms that subserve such operations? - What roles do these processes serve during behavior? Long-Range Cortical Circuits During Development. We are investigating how genes and development define the organization and function of long-range cortical circuits. Gaining a handle on how these circuits form will help us understand the role they serve during behavior. Technologies for Large-Scale Imaging of Neuronal Populations. We recently developed a multi-area two-photon microscope that enables simultaneous functional imaging with cellular resolution across cortical areas. We seek to expand on such methods to enable comprehensive monitoring of neuronal activity across the entire cortex. QUALIFICATIONS: We are seeking highly creative individuals who are interested in pursuing independent projects core to the lab's research interest. A first author publication (submitted or published) is a prerequisite for consideration. While experience with in vivo imaging and rodent behavior and a quantitative background is desired, we are also interested in individuals with a broad range of expertise within and outside of neuroscience. You can even be a mathematician, physicist, engineer, computer scientist, molecular biologist, artist, or musician. Some examples of potential good fits include: - Neurophysiologists with previous experience working with non-human primates interested in addressing similar questions in rodents. - Developmental neurobiologists interested in studying how circuit formation guides circuit function and behavior. - Computational neuroscientists interested in testing theoretical models using experimental data acquired in the lab. - Molecular biologists interested in utilizing molecular and genetic tools for addressing systems-level questions. - Optical engineers interested in developing and applying novel technologies for large-scale recording and stimulation of neuronal populations.

scanning access/training
by Ross Devlin 17 Mar '16

17 Mar '16

Hi All, I apologise for the length of this email but there is a lot of information to convey. Changes in the staffing level and responsibilities within YNiC and the increased no. of groups with external funding have created a situation where certain users are now finding it difficult to access the MRI scanner. There are number of discrete components to this situation which, when we were relatively quiet and better staffed, were not generally problematical. The situation is now different and the combination of these components has now stalled certain aspects of our work here. There is, unfortunately, no magic bullet to the problem. However the following actions should go some way to resolving the immediate crisis we seem to have and put in place some the framework for ensuring we don't end up here again. Short term. This is where our biggest problem lies, we have a no. of projects which are internally funded and are therefore only able to book 1 week in advance. Some of these are near completion and it is therefore entirely unreasonable to expect these groups to train a level 1 and level 0 operator to allow them to scan out of hours. Solution: I have set aside 5 hours per week (Mon - Fri 9am - 10am). Only the following projects have been identified as qualifying for these time slots. P1285,P1259 and P1229. Bookings have to be made by telephone call to reception who will amend the booking slot to contain your project details. If you believe your project qualifies please email Tony Morland to make your case. Medium Term. In order for projects/groups to be able to perform their own scanning in unsupervised time they need to be able to access appropriate supervised training. The existing training programme for level 1 operators has certain inefficiencies, which if correctly addressed should allow us to 'accelerate' the training without compromising safety. Solution: Discrete training sessions will be set aside (3hours per week) for console training during which multiple trainees will be able to go through the process of safety screening, positioning, protocol set up and data acquisition multiple times to 'embed' the process more quickly (several done in quick succession is far more valuable than a larger no. done over a longer time period). It must be stressed these sessions are for training only, project data will not be acquired in 'training sessions'. Once this initial training exercise has been adequately completed. The project will then be allowed to book into 'ring fenced' training slots where project data can be acquired and for which they will be charged at the appropriate rate. I have set aside a further 4 hours per week where booking is restricted to those groups that have been involved in the 'bulk' training sessions and which will cover off project specific set up etc. Only once the supervising level 2 operator is satisfied with the trainees competence will they be signed off as an operator. Long Term Hopefully once our current 'crisis' of availability is passed the need for the 'short term' proposal reservations will diminish if not disappear altogether. The requirement for an ongoing training programme will remain, however, the amount of time we need to commit to it will be depend upon nos of new projects and availalability of operators within labs. Proposal: All new projects whether PhD, externally funded internal or external will need to declare whether or not they have a trained operator available for the proposed duration of their study. Internally funded PhD projects will be required to identify their own operator or an appropriate individual to be trained as such. Appropriate 'initial bulk' training sessions and PhD training slots will be determined probably at the start of each term. Kind regards Ross

The Bursary: Funding is available for UK/EU and International* students at Home/EU rates for three years full-time study (or part-time equivalent for five years). The Bursary includes tuition fee waiver at £4,052 and stipend at £16,057 for 2015/16).* Project Supervisors: Prof. Paul Allen, Director, Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuro-Imaging (CNNI) Lab, Department of Psychology: http://www.roehampton.ac.uk/staff/Paul-Allen/ Informal enquiries can be made to Professor Allen via Paul.Allen(a)roehampton.ac.uk Professor Michael Eysenck, Dept of Psychology Project area: Difficulty concentrating is symptomatic of anxiety because attention is often compromised by biases to negative information. A relatively new brain-imaging technique called closed loop training (CLT) could be used to enhance attentional control and diminish bias to negative information. CLT using real-time functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging neurofeedback, provides a way of monitoring cognitive and underlying neural states, and allows the real-time and continuous adaption of these states to optimise performance. The technique involves simultaneously measuring and analysing the signal derived from an fMRI experiment that utilises attentional control, and feeding it back to the participant in real time. This study aims to: a) Examine whether participants with high levels of trait anxiety can use CLT to self-regulate or adjust their cognitive strategy and alter their neural response in real time. b) Evaluate if specific executive operations crucial for attentional control (set shifting and inhibition) can be regulated by CLT. The successful candidate will Develop, manage and complete the research project (participant recruitment and fMRI data collection). Participate in research and training activities. Write their PhD thesis including papers for publication in peer reviewed journals. Participate in relevant meetings/ seminars.

The consortium will develop neurofeedback methods to facilitate sustained attention, i.e. long-term attention on a specific task. Sustained attention is generally difficult and often leads to a state with wandering thoughts. We aim to develop a system which detects such states by real-time analysis of MEG signals, and alerts the subject, which enables bringing attention back to the original task. As an application of the neurofeedback method we consider mindfulness training, in which sustained attention is particularly crucial. The consortium partners span a wide range of expertise: machine learning, MEG methods, MEG experimentation, and cognitive neuroscience. Thus, we invite applications from candidates with various backgrounds, including PhDs in neuroimaging, computer science, psychology, and engineering. Candidates with experience in neuroscience are preferred but exceptionally qualified candidates with a strong commitment to neuroscience are also eligible. Candidates who are likely to obtain a PhD degree very soon can also apply. The Aalto and Jyvaskyla sites possess state-of-the-art MEG laboratories with Elekta systems. Salaries are internationally competitive, often exceeding EUR 3500 per month. The starting date and the duration are negotiable, but an early start is preferred. Please send your application to: aapo.hyvarinen [at] helsinki.fi . Attach at least: CV, publication list, a short statement of research interests, and names and email addresses of 2-3 people willing to give their opinion on your competence. Review of applications will start on 1st April and continue until the position is filled.

The post will be based at the Division of Psychology and Language Sciences and at the Dept. of Visual Neuroscience, Institute of Ophthalmology. The post-holder will work on a project funded by the Economic and Social Research Council with Dr. Tessa Dekker. The post is for 24 months, with scope for a 6-month extension, and involves international collaborations, e.g., with New York University, and The Free University, Amsterdam. To apply go to www.jobs.ac.uk, or UCL human resources, job opportunities, reference: 1538671. Scientific aims of project: Successful execution of everyday risky actions such as crossing a road or catching a ball requires risk-assessment. This involves a complex interplay between the perceptual- and motor system, and cost-factors in the environment. Some of our lab’s recent work suggests that these processes are still suboptimal in children aged 6-11 years, potentially placing these children at unnecessary risk (Dekker & Nardini, 2015). This research will help increase understanding of children’s suboptimal visuomotor choices, and how, when, and why they improve with age. Tasks/Techniques: The successful candidate will help develop, run, analyse, and report studies involving (a) new child-friendly tasks that emulate real-life risky actions (e.g., using life-size installations, motion capture technology, and touchscreen displays), (b) neuroimaging paradigms (fMRI) that track change at the level of neural representation, and (c) fitting behavioural and fMRI data with quantitative models of neurocognitive processing (such as Bayesian ideal observer models), to investigate which factors may explain developmental change. The research focus can be determined in part by the successful candidate’s expertise and interests, and there is scope for extending the work to clinical groups, such as patients with visual impairments at Moorfields Eye Hospital. Personal Requirements: The successful candidate will have a PhD in cognitive neuroscience or a related field, be technically competent, have affinity with maths and good programming skills (e.g., in Matlab). They also must have excellent communication skills in English to interact effectively with child participants, parents, and the scientific community. Experience in behavioural psychophysics, movement science, and/or developmental science are desirable.
