Hari Eswaran PhD
Scientific Director FMEG -- SARA
UAMS, Little Rock, 72205
*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. (

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(a)uams.edu <mailto:saracenter@uams.edu>).
