    The Rotman Research Institute of Baycrest Centre, affiliated with the
    University of Toronto, has an opening for a 2+ year post-doctoral
    research fellowship in the area of Visual Perception and Attention.
    The research, to be conducted with Kathleen O'Craven, will use fMRI to
    explore how cognitive processes influence sensory processing in
    extrastriate visual cortex.

    The position is to begin in January, 2001 (negotiable) and is for two
    years with the possibility of continuing. Applicants who are eligible
    for funding from Canadian agencies are expected to apply to the

    the Medical Research Council of Canada, and includes an allowance for
    travel and research expenses. Applicants should have a Ph.D., M.D.,
    or equivalent degree. A background in cognitive psychology or a
    related field is essential. Experience with functional neuroimaging
    is desirable, but not necessary.

    Applications from qualified women and men, members of visible
    minorities, aboriginal peoples and persons with disabilities are
    encouraged. In accordance with Canadian immigration requirements,
    this advertisement is directed first to Canadian citizens and
    permanent residents, though citizens of other countries are also
    welcome to apply.
