The Memory Aging & Cognition Centre (MACC) is a Research Center within
the National University Health System funded by the Singapore National
Medical Research Council that focuses on the study of dementia and
cognitive impairment in the elderly. The MACC currently has 4 research
themes on biomarker discovery, neuroimaging, clinical assessment and
epidemiology(http://www.nuhs.edu.sg/research/programmatic-research/major-research-programs/vascular-and-neurodegenerative-mechanisms-in-dementia.html).
There is an opportunity for a qualified candidate with interests in
Neuroimaging to join the MACC in a Research Fellow/Senior Research
Fellow tostudy the neural basis of cognition and associated
vulnerability patterns in neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular
diseases. There is access to a 3T MR, MR-PET and retinal imaging.
The candidate must possess either 1) a Basic Medical Degree (MBBS, MD,
MD/PhD) and recognized postgraduate qualifications in Radiology OR 2) a
PhD degree, which must include appropriate postgraduate training and
experience in Neuroimaging.The candidate must have a good record of
research accomplishments in Neuroimaging –preferably but not exclusively
in dementia or cognitive impairment. The candidate should possess the
ability to work independently in a highly collaborative and
international research environment, and be able to demonstrate
initiative, creativity, technical independence and excellent
communication skills. Proven skills in MRI data analyses is a plus but
not necessary.The successful candidate will be expected to take on a
leadership role in neuroimaging research projects within the MACC under
the supervision of the MACC Director and MACC PIs and collaborators in
NUHS and Duke-NUS, as well as to undertake independent research.
Remuneration will be competitive and commensurate with qualification and
experience.
Interested candidates are to submit a full CV, including research
statement and names of 3 referees together with medical testimonials and
certificate of registration to:
