Dear Colleagues,
We have a Research Assistant position at UCLA for a motivated
individual, starting ~April 2014 and going through summer of 2015. The
position requires someone who is able to work independently, problem
solve and preferably has experience with EEG data and Matlab (other
programming may suffice, Linux skills invaluable). Interests in signal
processing and data analysis as well as in translational (ADHD) science
and cognitive training are considerable assets.
Many many thanks!
Agatha

4th International Workshop on Pattern Recognition in NeuroImaging
(PRNI 2014)
June 4-6 2014, Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems,
Tübingen, Germany
Website: http://www.prni.org <http://www.prni.org/>
<http://www.prni.org/>
Multivariate analysis of neuroimaging data has gained ground very
rapidly in the community over the past few years, leading to
impressive results in cognitive and clinical neuroscience. Pattern
recognition and machine learning conferences regularly feature a
neuroimaging workshop, while neuroscientific meetings dedicate
sessions to new approaches to neural data analysis. Thus, a rich
two-way flow has been established between disciplines. It is the
goal of the 4th International Workshop on Pattern Recognition in
NeuroImaging to continue facilitating exchange of ideas between
scientific communities, with a particular interest in new approaches
to the interpretation of neural data driven by new developments in
pattern recognition and machine learning.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Authors should prepare full papers with a maximum length of 4 pages
(double-column, IEEE style, PDF) for review. Reviews will be
double-blind, i.e. submissions have to be anonymized.

The Menninger Clinic and the McNair Medical Institute is offering a
one-year postdoctoral fellowship in psychiatric neuroimaging and
genomics research to begin July 1, 2014. The successful candidate may
have the option of extending to a second-year. Data from the McNair
Initiative for Neuroscience Discovery-Menninger Baylor (MIND-MB) project
utilizes state-of-the-art psychiatric assessment, neuroimaging, and
genomics to study of adolescent and adult populations with serious
mental illness. Candidates with a background in social-cognitive and/or
affective neuroscience are strongly encouraged to apply, but content
areas such as RDoC negative valence systems will also be considered.
Eligible candidates must have their PhD or MD, demonstrate a proven
track record of scholarship and publications, have experience with
advanced statistical methods (SEM, LPA, multivariate association
statistics), with Matlab programming and neuroimaging software (SPM,
AFNI, FSL), and be able to work as a member of a team comprised of
clinical neuroscientists, clinicians, and geneticists.
Baylor College of Medicine’s Menninger Department of Psychiatry and
Behavioral Sciences is dedicated to innovative and relevant
translational research into psychiatric disorders. The Menninger Clinic
is ranked in the top 5 Psychiatric hospitals in the country and Forbes
ranked Houston as one of the coolest cities to live.
To apply send CV and names of 2 references to: cfowler(a)menninger.edu
For further information feel free to call Dr. Fowler at 713-275-5508
Dear Users
This afternoon (4.15 pm in YNiC open plan) there will be an internal
project proposal presentation given by Emma Holmes. The title of Emma's
talk is "Auditory attention during multi-talker listening".
Everyone is welcome to attend and refreshments will be served afterwards.
Best wishes
