[visionlist] NSF funded 3-Year POSTDOC position in Visual Neuroscience, Macknik Lab

[Stephen Macknik]

NSF funded 3-Year Postdoctoral Position: The neural correlates of visual
perception in awake monkeys and humans


A postdoctoral position in visual neuroscience is available immediately at
The Barrow Neurological Institute (a member of St. Joseph's Hospital, CHW.
EOE.), in the laboratory of Stephen Macknik. Research in the laboratory
addresses the neuronal mechanisms of visual perception and awareness, using
a combination of visual psychophysics, neurophysiology, and functional brain
imaging methods, such as fMRI and intrinsic signal imaging and in vivo
two-photon microscopy. Current and planned projects include investigations
of flicker perception, brightness and visual masking. The ideal candidate
will have a strong background in any (or all) of these techniques:
functional imaging, electrophysiological recording, psychophysics, optical
imaging (intrinsic signal and/or two-photon microscopy), and neuronal
modeling, as evidenced by first-author publications. Programming experience
with Matlab or C is very desirable.

Salary will be commensurate with level of experience. A generous benefits
package is offered in addition, including medical, dental, vision, and
retirement (with a value equal to 24.7% of the salary). The Barrow
Neurological Institute is a top-ten rated clinical neuroscience institute
(US News and World Report), and is situated in central Phoenix, the fastest
growing and most desirable major metropolitan area in the US. Please send
CV, contact information for at least two references, and representative
publications to:
