A part-time position as a doctoral student or scientific assistant is available at the Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy III of the University of Ulm in the field of genetic imaging (3 years). The focus is on the genetics of perfusion imaging and imaging endophenotypes of affective disorders. Candidates will be considered until the position is filled.

The successful candidate will work in a team forming an international consortium including the BfArM (the German FDA) and the DZNE in Bonn, and partners in Sweden and Canada, funded by the NEURON-Eranet agency.

The Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy III hosts a cognitive-behavioural Training Institute on its premises. This opening might be of interest to a young psychologist with some experience of neuroimaging and wishing to initiate clinical training in the German system, since there are excellent opportunities to combine the two activities.

I will be in Hamburg at the Human Brain Mapping conference, and interested candidates are very welcome to contact me for an informal chat.

Roberto Viviani, PhD Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychology
