The Institute for Stroke and Dementia Research at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich: Research Fellow/Postdoc: Functional MRI & EEG Neuroimaging in Dementia RESEARCH FOCUS and RESPONSIBILITIES: The research fellow/postdoc will work on multimodal imaging of human brain changes in early stages of Alzheimer’s disease and cerebrovascular disease. The funded neuroscience research project headed by Prof. Dr. Michael Ewers has a strong focus on the combined acquisition of functional MRI and high-density EEG along with other neuroimaging modalities to study brain changes in humans. The establishment of the fMRI-EEG task-related paradigm and statistical analysis will be a key part of the responsibilities of research position. The fellow will work in a dynamically growing neuroimaging team and is encouraged to bring in own research ideas. REQUIREMENTS: Research experience in EEG or functional MRI in humans is mandatory. The candidate should have a strong interest in either of those image modalities. Solid knowledge of programming and statistics is a plus. Familiarity with biological or clinical aspects of Alzheimer’s disease is not a prerequisite. An enthusiastic, reliable and independent work style will provide a good fit for our team. OFFER: Our institute offers an excellent multidisciplinary environment and state-of-the-art multimodal neuroimaging equipment (3T MRI, high-density fMRI compatible EEG, molecular PET). The research fellow will have clearly defined task definitions, access to all data sets of the research project, and advanced technical support to facilitate efficient work conditions. The fellow will work in a friendly, dynamic, and highly productive lab (http://www.klinikum.uni-muenchen.de/Institut-fuer-Schlaganfall-und-Demenzfo…). The Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU) (http://www.en.uni-muenchen.de/index.html), Germany, and its clinics figure among Germany’s premier and internationally competitive biomedical research sites funded by the government’s German Universities Excellence Initiative. The Institute for Stroke and Dementia Research (ISD) is a thriving new research-dedicated institution of the University of Munich.
