Times************************************************************************ POST-DOCTORAL POSITION IN BRAIN PLASTICITY AND IMAGING University of Rochester, Rochester NY ************************************************************************ A post-doctoral position is available at the University of Rochester, Rochester, NY to work in the brain imaging groups of Dr. Bavelier (http://www.bcs.rochester.edu/~daphne) and Dr. Zhong (http://128.151.16.162). We seek to hire a candidate to work on brain plasticity and in particular on the use of MR techniques (fMRI, ER-fMRI, diffusion imaging, perfusion imaging) to characterize plasticity in the human brain. The ideal candidate would have a background in MR imaging and Neuroscience, a good command of programming and solid foundations in statistics and image analysis. The appointment is for a minimum of two years, with possibility of extension - salary commensurate with experience. The candidate will be part of Dr. Bavelier's lab and work in collaboration with Dr. Zhong head of MR Research at the University of Rochester Medical School, which includes two GE 1.5T magnets. The facilities are located in the department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences and in the Radiology Department, providing a rich scientific environment including access to leading research: - in development of new MR imaging methods as well as studies of fundamental MR mechanisms related to physiology and pathology (http://128.151.16.162/ Publications.html). - in Neuroscience (http://www.bcs.rochester.edu/neuroscience/index.html) - in Cognitive Science (0000,0000,00FFhttp://www.bcs.rochester.edu) - in Vision Science (0000,0000,00FFhttp://www.cvs.rochester.edu) If interested, please send a CV and short statement of your interest, as well as the name and address of three references to Daphne Bavelier, daphne@bcs.rochester.edu, or to Jianhui Zhong, 0000,0000,00FFjianhui_zhong@urmc.rochester.edu.
