[visionlist] Postdoc in monkey physiology / Kastner lab, Princeton

[Sabine Kastner]

POSTDOC IN MONKEY PHYSIOLOGY @ KASTNER LAB, PRINCETON

A postdoctoral research associate position is available in the  
Neuroscience of Attention & Perception Laboratory, led by Dr. Sabine  
Kastner in the Department of Psychology and Princeton Neuroscience  
Institute at Princeton University. This is a full-time, 1 year  
position with possibility of renewal based on satisfactory performance.
The lab uses a variety of methods to study attention at various levels  
of processing from subcortical structures (LGN, pulvinar) to higher- 
order cortex (fronto-parietal areas). This position is for a  
postdoctoral researcher interested in monkey electrophysiology  
(simultaneous recordings from two or more brain regions) in studies of  
vision and attention. There is also an opportunity to learn  MR  
imaging methods (DTI, fMRI) in non-human primates. In addition to this  
line of research, the postdoctoral researcher will be given the  
opportunity to participate in other lab research endeavors, and they  
will be expected to make a strong contribution to the lab's overall  
research efforts.

Essential qualifications for this position include: a Ph.D. in  
Psychology, Neuroscience, or other closely related field; strong  
background in monkey electrophysiology and strong quantitative skills  
using Matlab.  Candidates must pass a standard MR safety screening in  
order to work in the MR environment.

To apply for this position, please submit a cover letter, C.V.,  
research statement and contact information for three references to http://jobs.princeton.edu 
.

  If you have questions, please contact Sabine Kastner directly (skastner at princeton.edu
