Fwd: Postdoctoral Fellowship Available at Stanford University

The Stanford Cognitive and Systems Neuroscience Laboratory (http://cosyne.stanford.edu) invites applications for a postdoctoral fellowship in developmental cognitive neuroscience and learning disabilities research. The lab provides a unique multidisciplinary and collaborative environment for conducting research on brain and cognitive development. The fellow will participate in ongoing studies of cognitive training and brain plasticity in children, with a focus on numerical cognition, reasoning and problem solving in typically developing children and in children with learning disabilities. The fellow will be expected to develop a vigorous research program that contributes to, and complements, ongoing research studies. The fellow will have access to state-of-the-art brain imaging, computational and cognitive testing facilities, and training in advanced computational techniques for MRI, fMRI, and DTI analysis will be provided. Candidates are expected to have a strong research background in relevant areas of cognitive neuroscience and psychology, as well as excellent writing, communication and inter-personal skills. Candidates should hold a Ph.D. in psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science or a closely related discipline. Please email a CV, statement of research interests and relevant background, and request three letters to be emailed in confidence to Ms. Suzanna Chan at suzannachan(a)stanford.edu.
