*POST-DOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP*
*IN CLINICAL NEUROIMAGING *
/THOMAS JEFFERSON UNIVERSITY/ JEFFERSON /
/MEDICAL COLLEGE, PHILA., PA./
The Department of Neurology at Thomas Jefferson University/Jefferson
Medical College announces a Two-Year Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in
Clinical Neuroimaging focusing on both clinical applications and
primary cognitive neuroscience investigations. The emphasis in our
neuroimaging program is on cognitive and behavioral
reorganization/plasticity following brain surgery for epilepsy, tumors,
and other neurological conditions. Presurgical brain mapping studies are
undertaken (MRI volumetrics, fMRI, resting state, diffusion weighted
imaging, electrocortical stimulation, neuropsychological assessment) as
well as post-surgical neuroimaging studies investigating clinical,
cognitive, and behavioral outcomes. Pre-surgical brain mapping studies
will be conducted on a regular basis and utilized in image-guided
surgery. Funded and planned cognitive neuroscience studies in cognitive
reorganization and plasticity will be emphasized, but other projects in
attention, motor, memory, and language will be conducted. Thomas
Jefferson University provides a rich interdisciplinary environment with
grand rounds, seminars, case conferences, and opportunities to
collaborate with faculty across departments such as neurosurgery.
Successful applicant will have a strong background in image processing
(e.g., MATLAB, SPM) with a strong interest in clinical neuroimaging and
cognitive neuroscience. Applicants must have a MD or PHD in
neuroscience, biophysics, biomedical engineering, statistics,
neuropsychology, or related field. Interested applicants should send a
CV and cover letter stating experience and interests, three letters of
recommendation, and transcripts. Anticipated start date is summer of
2014. *Contact: Joseph I. Tracy, Ph.D., ABPP(CN). Director, Cognitive
