Fwd: Two postdoctoral positions in Cognitive Neuroscience in the "Laboratoire de Neurosciences Cognitives", Marseille, FR
by Gary Green 10 Sep '14

10 Sep '14

Two postdoctoral positions in Cognitive Neuroscience in the "Laboratoire de Neurosciences Cognitives", Marseille, FR The "Laboratoire de Neuroscience Cognitives" (Aix-Marseille Université, CNRS) is opening two post-doctoral positions (EEG/MEG and TMS) to work on an ERC project aiming at deciphering pro-active and reactive cognitive control, within the team "Attention, Chronometry and Cortical Dynamics". Each position is offered for 12 months (first instance, potentially renewable). Applicants for the EEG/MEG position must have a PhD on Cognitive Neuroscience/Experimental Psychology (or related disciplines) and have a good knoedge on EEG and/or MEG processing. Knowledge on spatial analysis (Current Source Density for EEG, inverse solution for EEG and MEG) is certainly a plus. Although not required, programming skills in high level scientific languages (Python, Matlab etc...) will be (highly) appreciated. The hosting group is equipped with several EEG systems (64 and 128 electrodes) and has access to a 248 magnetometers MEG system (4D Neuroimaging magnes 3600), coupled with an EEG system. When applying please indicate [post-doc EEG/MEG] in the subject of your mail. Applicants for the TMS position must have a PhD on Cognitive Neuroscience/Experimental Psychology (or related disciplines) and have experience with single pulse (and potentially paired-pulse) TMS. Knowledge of a neuronavigation system is a plus. Although not required, programming skills in high level scientific languages (Python, Matlab etc...) will be (highly) appreciated. The hosting group is equipped with several TMS apparatus, and with a robotized device allowing to precisely track the participants head movements to ensure optimal positioning of the coil. When applying please indicate [post-doc TMS] in the subject of your mail. Salary will be adjusted based on experience, and will follow CNRS regulation (between 2000 and 2900€ net). The "Laboratoire de Neurosciences Cognitives" is embedded in a very active and large Brain Research community (the second largest in France), ranging from cellular physiology to social neurosciences. The hosting group has strong connections with the local Brain research community, and numerous international collaborations, that will benefit to the retained candidates. French speaking is not a requirement. Position starts as soon as possible, and will be opened until it is filled. Besides, Marseille is a very nice city in south of France, on the Mediterranean Sea, with a warm climate. It is also at about 1h30 from the Alps mountains, allowing easy access to hiking and winter sports. CV and motivation letters, along with informal enquiries, are to be sent to Boris BURLE (email: boris.burle(a)univ-amu.fr), with the appropriate subject heading (see above).

Experience with analysis of structural, diffusion, fMRI including resting state, MEG, PET, SPECT, and EEG data is required. The ability to co-register multi-modality diagnostic (EEG, MEG) studies with SISCOM, MRI, fMRI, DTI and PET studies is a must. Experience in planning stereo EEG electrode placement, surgical guidance, and proficiency with PRISM software, CURRY Neuroimaging Suite, and BrainLab surgical navigation systems, is desired. The position is funded for an initial two-year time period, with a high likelihood of long term employment. Salary is based on the NIH scale and benefits are highly competitive.

The Center for Mind & Brain and the Department of Psychology at the University of California, Davis, invite applications for a tenure-track position in Mind & Brain Sciences. The appointment will be at the Assistant Professor level. Applications are sought from scholars who have strong and innovative research portfolios that focus on both the human mind and the human brain and that would complement the existing research at the Center for Mind & Brain (http://mindbrain.ucdavis.edu ). This could involve any state-of-the-art methodological approach (including but not limited to imaging, electrophysiology, stimulation, modeling, genetics, neuropsychology, behavior/psychophysics, and child/life-span development) and any content area that integrates mind and brain and is synergistic with existing research at the Center for Mind & Brain. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in psychology, neuroscience, statistics, biomedical engineering, or related field, or an M.D. with specialization in neurology, psychiatry, radiology, or a related field (must be completed by the first day of courses, September 24, 2015); a strong commitment to high quality teaching; and the potential to attract, or an established record of attracting, substantial extramural funding. The successful applicant will hold an academic appointment in the Department of Psychology and will contribute to the graduate and undergraduate teaching programs of that department (and will likely participate in the University-wide Neuroscience Graduate Program). The individual’s laboratory will be located at the Center for Mind and Brain, an interdisciplinary research center with 18 core faculty and a dedicated research staff. The Center offers an impressive array of modern research equipment, including several high-density EEG/ERP recording labs and a transcranial magnetic stimulation laboratory. Center faculty also have access to three research-dedicated MRI scanners at the Imaging Research Center (http://ucdirc.ucdavis.edu ), including a new 3T Siemens Skyra system and a BrainAmp MR system for simultaneous EEG/MRI. The cognitive neuroscience community is extremely well integrated across campus, with exceptionally collegial interactions and collaborations among members of the Center for Mind & Brain, the Center for Neuroscience, the MIND Institute, and the Imaging Research Center. We also have close ties with many academic departments and with the UC-Davis Medical Center. Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, statements of research and teaching interests, representative reprints and/or preprints, and at least three letters of recommendation electronically at: https://recruit.ucdavis.edu/apply/JPF00384 The position will remain open until filled. Applications submitted by November 1st, 2014 will receive full initial consideration. For information, contact the Search Committee Chair, Dr. Steve Luck, sjluck(a)ucdavis.edu.
