RESEARCH ASSISTANT, PRINCETON UNIVERSITY
COGNITIVE NEUROSCIENCE OF VISUAL PERCEPTION

A full-time research assistant position is available in Frank Tong’s lab
to work on functional neuroimaging (fMRI) studies of human visual
perception.  Lab research focuses on neural mechanisms of visual
perception, attention and awareness, and include studies of binocular
rivalry, filling in, face perception, object recognition, visual
attention and the neural correlates of perceptual awareness. 

Responsibilities include: conducting fMRI and behavioral studies,
analyzing fMRI and behavioral data, programming visual displays,
ordering equipment, and assisting in the organization and maintenance of
the lab. Opportunities to help conduct EEG and TMS work are also
possible.  BA/BS required.  Strong computer skills and experience with
multiple platforms (i.e., Mac, Unix, PC) are also required.  General
knowledge in the areas of visual perception, cognitive psychology or
neuroscience is recommended.  Experience in programming visual displays
(using Matlab or C) is a definite plus. 

This position offers excellent training for students who wish to pursue
a career in cognitive neuroscience.  Position start date is flexible. 
Salary and rank will be commensurate with experience.
