Fwd: New Postdoc position available in the MRC Cognition and Brain Science Unit, Cambridge, UK.

Dear all, Applications are invited for a post-doctoral position to join the Cambridge Centre for Ageing and Neuroscience (CamCAN). This centre brings together a large group of researchers across the University of Cambridge and at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit (MRC-CBU) who aim to relate brain changes to cognitive changes over the adult lifespan (covering ages 18-88). You will work with a unique population-representative sample of 700 adults on whom we have already collected extensive cognitive and structural brain measures. A subset of these individuals will be tested in a further set of fMRI and MEG studies designed to probe specific cognitive functions. The CamCAN project will integrate across these data-sets using a variety of methods, relating changes in neural structure and function over the lifespan to changes in cognitive function and capacity. Your role will be to help conduct the second stage fMRI and MEG studies, and to play a key role in integrating the various CamCAN cognitive and imaging datasets, using multivariate and multimodal neuroimaging methods. You will be a cognitive neuroscientist with a strong background in statistics, especially of large data-sets, and in functional imaging, imaging statistics and cognitive and/or physiological ageing.
