RESEARCH ASSISTANTSHIP IN FUNCTIONAL NEUROIMAGING OF VISUAL COGNITION. 
Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School.  

Applications are invited for a Research Assistant to work on fMRI studies of 
visual perception, memory and attention.  The person appointed would help in 
designing, programming and running experiments, both behavioral and with fMRI 
brain imaging.  The position also entails organizing a subject pool and 
running subjects, analyzing data, collaborating in writing articles, and doing some 
library searches.  Being curious and highly motivated is essential.  Some 
acquaintance with UNIX, Macs and Matlab would be a plus, but programming is 
not necessary.  B.A. with courses in psychology, neuroscience, or computer 
science preferred.  In addition to the immense intellectual reward, the 
position would give the holder experience of research in a variety of topics 
in cognitive neuroscience, as well as an extensive training in using some 
of the best fMRI designing and analyzing tools.  Facilities include 
state-of-the-art 7T, 3T and 1.5T fMRI systems dedicated to research and 
supported by a large physics and engineering core.  The position is full-time, 
and a minimum commitment of TWO years would be required.  Full-time 
employees receive full benefits.
