Dear all,
I hope that this email finds you well. I just started my own lab on September 1st. The institute helped me to find a very good lab manager, who has already helped me a lot. Things went smoothly at this point. The next step is to find scientists, which can be the most difficult part. I have no ideas on what would be a good strategy to find a good postdoc, and I expect that I will have a very hard time finding good candidates.
Nevertheless, I am looking for one postdoc and have started an open call for a postdoc position. I'm now trying to distribute the ad as much as I can.
If you kindly distribute the following ad for those who have potential interest, I will greatly appreciate it.
Best,
Hiromasa

Dear All,
The Takemura Lab (https://www.nips.ac.jp/scbm/en/) at National Institute for Physiological Sciences (Okazaki, Japan) is seeking to hire a postdoctoral fellow, who will work on one of the following topics: (i) human neuroimaging study on white matter tracts, or comparative studies on white matter tracts using diffusion MRI, (ii) high-resolution structural and/or functional brain mapping using 7T MRI system, and (iii) cognitive neuroscience studies on sensory or language processing in the human brain.
The prior experience on neuroimaging studies is advantageous but not required. Candidates are expected to be experienced with coding in either MATLAB or Python. Candidates must have a Ph.D. or be scheduled to complete the degree until the starting date.
The National Institute of Physiological Sciences is located in a city named Okazaki, which is renowned for beautiful cherry blossoms along a clean river and the Okazaki castle. The institute houses a 7T and 3T MRI system fully dedicated for research. Takemura Lab houses a setup for visual psychophysics experiments.
