The Estelle and Daniel Maggin Department of Neurology at Icahn School of
Medicine at Mount Sinai New York, New York is offering a full time
position as Postdoctoral Research Fellow. Applicants should have a Ph.D.
degree in biomedical engineering or MR physics and should have knowledge
and experience in task-based fMRI and/or resting state BOLD functional
connectivity analysis. Experience with fMRI analysis software packages,
presentation software, strong computer programming skills (e.g., in
C/C++ & especially MATLAB) are highly desirable. The newly constructed
Hess Center for Science and Medicine at Mount Sinai hosts both
state-of-the-art and cutting-edge imaging equipment including 1.5 Tesla,
3.0 Tesla, integrated MR/PET, PET/CT and human 7.0 Tesla (Siemens
Medical Solutions, Enlargen, Germany). The Hess Center has a very active
interdisciplinary research team consisting of people from engineering,
physics, chemistry, biology, and neuroscience backgrounds. The
post-holder will be expected to develop novel image post-processing,
computational and statistics methods to analyze fMRI data from specific
groups of neurological patients in collaboration with clinicians and
investigators involved in real-time fMRI, PET imaging, EEG and
rehabilitation. The Lab has a strong interest in developing new
algorithms for integrating neuroimaging modalities, laboratory and
behavioral measures in neurological diseases. Potential applicants are
encouraged to contact Matilde Inglese, Associate Professor Neurology,
Radiology and Neuroscience (email: matilde.inglese(a)mssm.edu) to find out
more about the role, before submitting a formal application including CV
and 3 references.
