The Autism Spectrum Disorders Research Program at the Child Study Center
of the NYU Langone Medical Center is looking for a post-doctoral fellow
interested in conducting behavioral and neuroimaging research in autism
spectrum disorders (ASD) and related conditions (e.g., attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder). Current research applies R-fMRI and
diffusion-tensor imaging, as well as simultaneous fMRI/EEG acquisition,
and behavioral and neuropsychological measures to investigate biomarkers
in children and adults with ASD and related neurodevelopmental
disabilities. The fellow will work with PI Adriana Di Martino (primary
mentor; NYU CSC) and collaborator Michael P. Milham (Child Mind
Institute, Nathan Kline Institute). Position is for a minimum of two
years and responsibilities will include but are not limited to study
design and data acquisition, data analysis and manuscript preparation.
Minimum Qualifications: Doctoral degree in cognitive neuroscience,
computer science, engineering or related areas. Prior experience with
one or more functional neuroimaging techniques (fMRI, PET, EEG, MEG) is
essential. Must be proficient with computers, scripting/programming
(bash, python and/or matlab) and at least one neuroimaging analysis
package (AFNI, SPM, FSL).
Applications should include a letter of interest and CV to be emailed to
Adriana Di Martino, M.D. Research Director of the Autism Research and
Clinical Program at NYU CSC at adriana.dimartino(a)nyumc.org and Michael
Milham, M.D., Ph.D. at michael.milham(a)childmind.org.
