MOOD AND ANXIETY DISORDERS PROGRAM
ICAHN SCHOOL OF MEDICINE AT MOUNT SINAI
The Mood and Anxiety Disorders Program is pleased to announce the
opening of a postdoctoral research fellowship in neuroimaging and
clinical neuroscience. Located within the Icahn School of Medicine at
Mount Sinai —internationally acclaimed for excellence in scientific
research, clinical care, and education—the Program conducts clinical and
translational research across the mood and anxiety disorder spectrum.
The primary mission of the Program is to identify the fundamental
mechanisms of disease and to discover novel treatments for patients
suffering from mood and anxiety disorders.
We seek candidates with a PhD who have completed doctoral training in
cognitive neuroscience and functional neuroimaging who are highly
motivated to develop expertise in applying cognitive science methodology
to problems in clinical and translational research. Postdoctoral fellows
will receive one on one mentoring in clinical research methodology and
work in a collaborative, multi-disciplinary environment to gain
experience in patient-centered research. Fellows will have the
opportunity to draw from the substantial resources of the School of
Medicine, including resources located within the Friedman Brain
Institute, the Translational and Molecular Imaging Institute and the
Brain Imaging Center in order to carry out high-impact research across
Departments. The mentored training experience may be augmented by formal
coursework in molecular and behavioral neuroscience, neuroimaging
methods and biostatistics. Upon completion of the fellowship, trainees
will be well positioned to pursue an independent research career in mood
and anxiety disorders.
We offer a competitive salary plus full benefits. Please email a
curriculum vitae to Dr. James Murrough (212-241-7574;
