*University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences*

*Post-Doctoral Research Position*

We are searching for a postdoctoral researcher with training in digital signal processing and time series analysis. The extremely weak biomagnetic fields generated in the brain of the human fetus can now be measured utilizing Superconducting QUantum Interference Device (SQUID) technology. The SQUID Array for Reproductive Assessment (SARA) was developed to apply SQUID technology to the measurement of physiological parameters from fetuses, mothers and newborns. The data that is recorded includes fetal Magnetoencephalography (MEG,) fetal Magnetocardiography (MCG) an uterine Magnetomyography (MMG). The SARA instrument is a unique world-class instrument installed in the SARA Research Center at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas. (http://obgyn.uams.edu/researchcenters). Applicants are expected to work in close collaboration with graduate students and members of the SARA-team and collaborators at our sister institution, the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR) to develop new study protocols, perform data analysis and develop new analytical approaches. Areas under investigation include independent component analysis, spatial time series analysis, fractal behavior, and 3D modeling and mapping. Requirements: A PhD (or near completion) in engineering, physics, computer science, neurosciences or a related field and excellent knowledge of signal analysis and modeling. Ability to program and use MATLAB is required. The position is available initially for two years. Salary is commensurate with experience. Review of applications will begin immediately. Applications including CV and a list of publications should be submitted by email to: Hari Eswaran PhD (saracenter@uams.edu mailto:saracenter@uams.edu).
