Fwd: Post-Doctoral Fellowship at the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Canada

Dear colleagues, Applications are invited for a post-doctoral fellow at the Hospital for Sick Children, affiliated with the University of Toronto. This training opportunity in developmental cognitive neuroscience will involve research on the maturation of functional brain networks during childhood and adolescence in relation to the development of cognitive abilities, as well as how atypical development of functional networks is related to cognitive difficulties in clinical populations including children with autism spectrum disorders and children born preterm. The applicants should hold a PhD in psychology, neuroscience or a related field. Prior neuroimaging experience using MEG and/or MRI is required. Research experience in cognitive neuroscience, cognitive development and/or source localization, time-frequency or connectivity analysis techniques would be an asset. The Hospital for Sick Children offers an excellent training environment with strong expertise in developmental cognitive neuroscience, paediatric neuroscience, and MEG and MRI imaging. Research-dedicated 3T MRI and MEG systems are core facilities within the hospital, and rich data sets collected from typically and atypically developing children are available. Post-doctoral funding is available for a two-year period. The successful applicant will conduct research primarily under the supervision of Dr. Margot J Taylor. Please send all applications, including and CV and covering letter to joanne.cook(a)sickkids.ca Start date: as soon as possible; applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis until the position is filled.
