Multimodal Neuroimaging in Neuropsychiatric Disorders Laboratory, Center for Cognitive Neuroscience at Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School, National University of Singapore is looking for postdoctoral fellow in cognitive neuroscience and/or multimodal neuroimaging.
Our group studies the human neural bases of social-emotion, cognition, and memory functions and the associated vulnerability patterns in neuropsychiatric disorders, including neurodegenerative diseases (focusing on AD, FTD and preclinical stages) and Schizophrenia. Multimodal neuroimaging and psychophysical techniques are employed, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional MRI, diffusion tensor imaging, and electroencephalography (EEG). We are interested in examining the network-level structural and functional brain connectivity to shed light on the neurobiological mechanism of disease, paving the way for early detection and intervention.
Candidates must have a passionate enthusiasm for research,
a strong background
in one of the following fields: cognitive neuroscience,
neuropsychiatric
disorders, neuroimaging analyses,
mathematics/statistics/machine learning or
related-fields. He/She should also possess the ability to
take the initiative,
work independently and be motivated to work in a highly
collaborative and
international research environment, and be able to
demonstrate creativity,
technical independence and excellent communication skills.
Strong interest in
studying social-emotion/cognition/memory functions and/or
applications of
multimodal neuroimaging in neuropsychiatric disorders is
preferred. Proven
skills in fMRI/EEG/DTI data analyses is a plus but not
necessary.
Key attractions are access to a 3T Tim Trio MR scanner and
a MR compatible
digital EEG system as well as collaboration opportunities
with an excellent
network of domestic and international scientists and
doctors. The position will
be two years with possible extension. Competitive package
will be provided
based on experience.
