*Post Doctoral Scientist -- Cambridge*
*Decision making: new models of brain and behaviour in health and disease*
**
The MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit (CBSU) is an internationally
renowned research institute with state-of-the-art cognitive neuroscience
facilities. We are looking for an enthusiastic and innovative post
doctoral scientist to join an intramural program on decision making and
dementia. This is an exciting opportunity to develop the interaction
between computational neuroscience and functional brain imaging,
including novel applications to neurological disorders.
The post is within a dynamic multidisciplinary team of clinical and
non-clinical scientists within CBSU and Cambridge University, led by Dr
James Rowe. It provides unparalleled access to cognitive and
translational neuroscience, in terms of imaging methods, research
facilities and an excellent post doctoral research community. This post
would include the development and optimisation of models for perceptual
and behavioural decisions in healthy humans, and the investigation of
the neural systems supporting decisions using functional brain imaging.
