The Child Mind Institute makes use of innovative MRI-imaging approaches to characterize brain maturation in typical and atypical development in childhood with an explicit focus on understanding the impact of psychiatric illnesses on maturational processes. Additionally, the Child Mind Institute is dedicated to the support of open science projects such as the International Neuroimaging Datasharing Initiative ( http://fcon_1000.projects.nitrc.org/ https://workforcenow.adp.com/mascsr/default/mdf/recruitment/recruitment.html?cid=1b50a554-ed4a-4219-a358-aa3cbeea1e70&jobId=284229&lang=en_US&source=CC3&ccId=19000101_000001 ) and the Configurable Pipeline for the Analysis of Connectomes ( http://fcp-indi.github.com). With this background a pplications are currently being invited for Data Analyst position in the Autism Center.
