RESEARCH ASSISTANT IN FUNCTIONAL NEUROIMAGING OF HIGH-LEVEL VISION. 
Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School.
  

Applications are invited for a Research Assistant to work on studies 
of visual cognition, memory and attention.  The person appointed would 
help in designing, programming and running experiments, both behavioral 
and with fMRI brain imaging (possibly MEG as well).  The job 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 two 
state-of-the-art 3T fMRI systems as well as an evolving 7T system and an 
MEG machine.  These systems are dedicated to research and supported by a 
large physics and engineering core at the NMR Center in MGH.  The position 
is full-time, and a minimum commitment of two years would be required.  
Full-time employees receive full benefits.  

Please send (preferably by email) a curriculum vitae, description of 
research experience, and a statement of goals and interests to:  Moshe 
Bar,  Massachusetts General Hospital, NMR Center, Bldg. 149, Rm. 2301,
