Rudolf Magnus Institute of Neuroscience
University of Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Department of Psychiatry, University Medical Hospital

The Functional Neuroimaging Section of the Rudolf Magnus Institute of
Neuroscience is seeking a postdoc in primate research, to join a team of
investigators in the area of cognitive neuroscience. This person will be
involved in a new research project aimed at building a model for the neural
correlates of automatization of cognitive functions. Within this project, a
team of researchers will use different techniques to identify neuronal
mechanisms at different levels of complexity, ranging for single-cell
recordings to EEG coherences to cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenic
patients. These currently available, and supported, techniques include
fMRI, EEG and ERP, TMS, single-cell recording in primates. fMRI studies
will be performed on a 3 T scanner.
We are looking for a biologist or experimental psychologist who has
completed a PhD in single-cell recordings in primates. The candidate has a
solid background in data analysis, preferably with regard to
multi-electrode recordings, and is capable of designing new analytical
algorithms for integrating EEG, fMRI and cell recording data.
The position is for 4 years, with the possibility to extend to 5 years.
Salary is commensurate with qualifications and experience.  Send resume and
cover letter to Nick Ramsey, Ph.D., Dept. Psychiatry, Room A.01.126,
University Medical Center, Heidelberglaan 100, 3584CX, Utrecht,
Netherlands. Email: N.Ramsey@azu.nl
