Postdoctoral Position at UNC-Chapel Hill
in Human Electrophysiology (EEG, tDCS/tACS, TMS)
We are seeking to fill one postdoctoral position in human electrophysiology in the
Frohlich Lab (
www.frohlichlab.org<http://www.frohlichlab.org/>) at the University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill. We are a rapidly growing lab that aims to understand how
cortical network dynamics emerge and how these dynamics can be modulated with brain
stimulation. We have received grant funding to further grow our human electrophysiology
team in the lab. In particular, we are interested in understanding how (feedback)
non-invasive brain stimulation alters cortical network dynamics that mediate cognition.
The successful applicant will employ tDCS/tACS, EEG, TMS, and cognitive testing for
elucidating the functional role of cortical oscillations in cognition and for the
development of novel strategies to enhance brain function and treat cognitive deficits in
psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and autism.
The successful candidate has a PhD in neuroscience or related discipline and a track
record of first class science demonstrated by first-author, peer-reviewed scientific
articles in the area of human neurophysiology. Documented skills in EEG and cognitive
assays are a prerequisite; programming and data analysis skills are essential. We will
provide training in non-invasive brain stimulation methods. Please send your CV and a
brief statement of research interest to
flavio_frohlich@med.unc.edu<mailto:flavio_frohlich@med.unc.edu> . Also, please have
two letters of recommendation directly submitted to the same email address.
We are looking forward to meeting passionate and hard-working applicants who are ready for
cutting-edge human neuroscience research. The Frohlich Lab takes pride in its high-quality
science, productive work environment, and culture of mentoring and collaboration. The
Frohlich aims to be a leading force in the emerging field of network neuroscience. The
Frohlich Lab is a unique environment due to the vertical integration of computer
simulations, slice electrophysiology, in vivo electrophysiology, human EEG and brain
stimulation studies, and clinical trials. Applications will be immediately reviewed until
the position is filled. Start date is flexible but the earlier the better.
